Careless Jewel shines in Alabama Stakes

Horseracing Betting Lines

08/22/2009 - Saratoga Springs, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Careless Jewel, winner of the Delaware Oaks, ran away from the field down the stretch to capture Saturday's $600,000 Alabama Stakes for three-year-old fillies at Saratoga Race Course. The gray filly emulated Rachel Alexandra by posting an 11-length victory over her seven rivals.

Ridden by Robert Landry, Careless Jewel was first out of the gate and was joined by Be Fair. Be Fair took the lead entering the clubhouse turn with Careless Jewel second on the outside and 5-2 favorite Milwaukee Appeal running in third.

Be Fair, ridden by Julien Leparoux, took the field up the backstretch with Careless Jewel pressing the pace followed by Milwaukee Appeal and Casanova Move.

As the field approached the far turn Be Fair and Careless Jewel were on even terms as Milwaukee Appeal and jockey John Velazquez advanced from the outside.

Careless Jewel took the lead on the final turn as Milwaukee Appeal grabbed second in the 1 1/4 mile race. Trained by Josie Carroll, Careless Jewel quickly opened her advantage over her challengers and won easily on a track labeled as 'good.'

Milwaukee Appeal, winner of the Woodbine Oaks, finished second followed by Casanova Move, Sweet and Flawless, Don't Forget Gil, Be Fair, Wynning Ride and Funny Moon.

The time for the 129th Alabama was 2:03.24.

"When we first stepped up from sprinting to go a mile and a sixteenth," said Carroll, "we thought this filly would stretch out."

Careless Jewel was coming off a front-running victory in the Delaware Oaks in July at Delaware Park as a 10-1 longshot. Owned by Donver Stable, the filly picks up $360,000 with Saturday's win to bring her career earnings to $582,846. Based at Woodbine in Toronto, Careless Jewel has won four of five starts, all this year.

Careless Jewel returned $7.80, $4.60 and $3.60. Milwaukee Appeal paid $3.90 and $3.00, and Casanova Move paid $5.90 to show.

Proud Spell, eventual three-year-old filly champion, won the 2008 Alabama Stakes.

On Friday, TVG and its parent company Betfair, Ltd. pledged an additional $400,000 to The New York Racing Association (NYRA) to invite Preakness Stakes winner Rachel Alexandra and champion mare Zenyatta to participate in the Beldame Stakes at Belmont Park on Saturday, October 3. With the $400,000 title sponsorship by TVG-Betfair, NYRA will raise the purse of the Beldame Stakes to $1 million if both Rachel Alexandra and Zenyatta run in the event.

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.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.

If someone has the skills to predict every winner, they will be set for life and walk away with $10,000,000.  Even if no one can cash in on the Grand Prize, with a $35,000 guaranteed prize pool and a Mazda RX-8 to the first prize winner, Sportsbook.com’s bracket is a must for all “March Madness” fans.
