Horseracing Betting Lines

06/08/2010 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra has not been entered in Saturday's $150,000 Obeah Stakes at Delaware Park, leaving three other races in the mix for her start this weekend.

The Obeah, a 1 1/8-mile prep for the Delaware Handicap, was one of the original four possible stakes that the champion filly could make her third start of the year. Still in the running are the Fleur de Lis and Stephen Foster Handicap, both at Churchill Downs. and the Ogden Phipps Handicap at Belmont Park.

Of the four races the Obeah has the smallest purse, the Foster Handicap is $600,000, the Fleur de Lis is worth $200,000 and the Ogden Phipps is valued at $250,000.

Monday morning the four-year-old had her last workout prior to Saturday's start. With Shaun Bridgmohan riding Rachel covered four-furlongs in 49 2/5 seconds.

"Everything seemed very comfortable," said trainer Steve Asmussen after the workout.

Owned by Stonestreet Stables and Harold McCormick, Rachel is seeking her first win of the year following losses at the Fair Grounds and Churchill Downs. In 2009 the filly was perfect in eight starts, including the Preakness, Haskell Invitational and Woodward.

Rachel Alexandra has career earnings of just over $3 million with 11 wins in 16 lifetime races.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
