Zenyatta hits right note in Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic

Horseracing Betting Lines

10/24/2008 - Arcadia, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Leading female thoroughbred Zenyatta came from the back of the pack to capture Friday's $2 million Ladies' Classic at Santa Anita to conclude the first day of the 25th Breeders' Cup World Thoroughbred Championships. Jockey Mike Smith notched his second Breeders' Cup win on the day.

Owned by Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Moss, Zenyatta was sent off as the 1-2 favorite in the eight-horse field of fillies and mares. She was 10 lengths off the leaders in the 1 1/8-mile race when Smith set her down for the rally.

Running on the outside, Zenyatta caught the leaders with 200 yards to go and went on to post a 1 1/2-length victory over Cocoa Beach. Three-year-old Music Note finished third with Carriage Trail and last year's Distaff runner-up Hystericalady in a dead-heat for fourth.

The time for the Ladies' Classic was 1:46.85 on the synthetic surface.

Zenyatta, trained by John Shirreffs, is perfect in nine career starts and seven races in 2008. She adds $1 million to her bankroll, which totals a little more than $2 million.

Smith, who earlier won the Juvenile Fillies, has been aboard the filly the last six starts. During that time Zenyatta has won Lady's Secret, Clement Hirsch, Vanity, Milady and Apple Blossom.

Formerly known as the Breeders' Cup Distaff, Smith won the race in 1995 with Inside Information, with Ajina in 1997 and in 2002 with Azeri.

Zenyatta paid $3.00, $2.60 and $2.10. Cocoa Beach returned $4.60 and $3.80, and Music Note paid $3.80 to show.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5

Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1

Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3
