Horseracing Betting Lines

05/13/2008 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Trainer Paulo Lobo confirmed Tuesday morning that Arkansas Derby winner Gayego will start in the 133rd Preakness Stakes on Saturday. With Gayego now set for the second leg of racing's Triple Crown, there will be 13 starters for the 1 3/16 mile race.

Gayego finished 17th out of 20 in the Kentucky Derby which was won by Big Brown. The colt will be the only three-year-old coming out of the Run for the Roses to face Big Brown at Pimlico.

"He's an extremely good shipper," said Lobo. "He came back very well. He's been eating everything. He's feeling happy."

Gayego has three wins in six lifetime starts for $723,420. Earlier this year he won the San Pedro Stakes and was second in the San Felipe, both at Santa Anita Park.

Mike Smith, who has ridden Gayego in all of his starts, has the return mount for the Preakness. Smith rode Prairie Bayou to victory in 1993.

The current line-up for the Preakness includes Big Brown, Kent Desormeaux; Yankee Bravo, Alex Solis; Macho Again, Julien Leparoux; Tres Borrachos, Tyler Baze; Stevil, John Velazquez; Kentucky Bear, Jamie Theriot; Giant Moon, Ramon Dominguez; Riley Tucker, Edgar Prado; Behindatthebar, David Flores; Icabad Crane, Jeremy Rose; Racecar Rhapsody, Robby Albarado; Gayego, Mike Smith and Hey Byrn, C.C. Lopez.

The weather forecast for Saturday calls for partly sunny skies and a post-time temperature around 65.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.

MySportsbook.com will offer comprehensive Nascar betting lines on every race remaining on the Nextel Cup series including driver match-ups, props and odds to win each race. For a complete list of NASCAR odds, please visit www.MySportsbook.com.
