Rachel Alexandra versus four in Fleur de Lis
Horseracing Betting Lines
06/09/2010 -
Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Rachel Alexandra, 2009 Horse of the Year,
goes after her first win of 2010 on Saturday in the $200,000 Fleur de Lis
Handicap at Churchill Downs. The 1 1/8-mile race for fillies and mares will be
the first in six weeks for the four-year-old filly.
Trained by Steve Asmussen, Rachel has drawn post four with regular rider
Calvin Borel in the saddle. The filly, who will carry 124 pounds, will face
four challengers in the race and is expected to be the odds-on favorite when
the gate opens.
"As long as she continues to progress, we intend to race her with the
expectation that she will obtain her fitness level of last year," said
majority owner Jess Jackosn in a press statement. "Our ultimate goal and hope
is to enter the Breeders' Cup in November."
Owned by Jackson's Stonestreet Stables and Harold McCormick, Rachel has come
up short in her initial two starts this year. She was second to Zardana at the
Fair Grounds in the New Orleans Ladies Classic and runner-up to Unrivaled
Belle at Churchill Downs in the La Troienne.
Undefeated in eight starts in 2009 the filly has career earnings of just over
$3 million with 11 wins in 16 lifetime races.
As a three-year-old Rachel won the Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs by 20 1/4-
lengths and proceeded to capture the Preakness, Mother Goose and Haskell
Invitational. She finished her 2009 campaign by beating older male
thoroughbreds in the Woodward at Saratoga.
Here is the complete field for Fleur de Lis in post position order: Multipass,
Jose Lezcano; Made for Magic, Oscar Berrio; Distinctive Dixie, Robby Albarado;
Rachel Alexandra, Calvin Borel and Jessica Is Back, Garrett Gomez.
This will be the 36th running of the Fleur de Lis and has a scheduled post-
time of 3:26 p.m. (et).

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
