The Indiana Standardbred Breed Development Program will sponsor coverage of tomorrow’s Little Brown Jug on satellite radio Sirius 126 and XM 243 -- and will do it in major-league fashion.

Veteran racing commentator Dave Johnson will host the show, with Peter Kleinhans and Darin Zoccali as analysts.

The show will be on the air tomorrow from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. (ET). If there is a race-off, the air time will be extended to cover it.

The Indiana breeders are using the show as a vehicle to promote its yearling sale, which is an important event given the new drawing power and purse structure of the state’s slot-fueled racing.

The entire Jug Day card also will be carried by Delaware radio station WINF (101.9 FM), which will stream it around the world, according to Jug officials.
