Zenyatta claims third straight Clement L. Hirsch

Horseracing Betting Lines

08/07/2010 - Del Mar, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Undefeated champion Zenyatta successfully negotiated Del Mar's synthetic surface Saturday on her way to winning the $300,000 Clement L. Hirsch Stakes. The six-year-old mare extended her career unbeaten streak to 18 races, including three consecutive Hirsch Stakes.

Owned by Jerry and Ann Moss, Zenyatta was ridden again by Mike Smith, who received a pre-race kiss from Hall of Fame jockey Julie Krone. Zenyatta sits atop the National Thoroughbred Poll and is now perfect in four starts this year.

The pace in the Hirsch was set by Rinterval. Racing in second was Dance to My Tune followed by Princess Taylor and Made for Magic. Zenyatta, who normally is last in the early going, was fifth in the six-horse field with Spring Style in sixth.

As the field entered the far turn, Zenyatta made her move to the front. Smith had her on the outside around the final turn and into the stretch. The champion mare easily went past Rinterval with a furlong to run.

Trained by John Shirreffs, Zenyatta held off a determined Rinterval down the stretch. The winner of last year's Breeders' Cup Classic posted a head victory over Rinterval.

"She literally was playing," Smith said about the 1-10 favorite.

Finishing third was Princess Taylor followed by Spring Style, Dance to My Tune and Made for Magic.

Zenyatta covered the 1 1/16-miles in 1:45.03.

Zenyatta adds $180,000 to her career earnings, which now stands at $6.15 million. In her four wins this year the champion has earned $780,000.

Zenyatta began her 2010 campaign by winning the Santa Margarita Handicap at Santa Anita Park and followed with a win as the 1-20 favorite in Oaklawn Park's Apple Blossom Handicap. She won the Vanity Handicap for a second straight time in her previous start.

Zenyatta is a two-time Eclipse Award winner as champion older female.

Zenyatta returned $2.20 and $2.10, and Rinterval paid $3.80 for place. There was no show wagering.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy.

Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.

MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:

Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)

Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line)
