A Little Warm is hot horse in Jim Dandy Stakes
Horseracing Betting Lines
07/31/2010 - Saratoga Springs, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A Little Warm, ridden by John Velazquez, took the lead in mid-stretch on his way to winning Saturday's $500,000 Jim Dandy Stakes at Saratoga Race Course.
The 1 1/8-mile contest is the local prep for the $1 million Travers on Saturday, August 28.
A Little Warm, trained by Tony Dutrow, prompted the pace that was set by Miner's Reserve. Running right behind the first two colts were Friend Or Foe and Stormy's Majesty, as 9-5 favorite Fly Down was racing last in the eight horse field.
Miner's Reserve and A Little Warm continued on the front end entering the final turn and as the field entered the stretch. Miner's Reserve, ridden by Calvin Borel, was a 15-1 longshot, while A Little Warm was the 4-1 third choice.
Owned by Edward Evans, A Little Warm edged past Miner's Reserve with a furlong to go and went on to post a 1 3/4-length victory. Afleet Express, the 5-2 second pick, advanced to finish third followed by Friend Or Foe, Fly Down, Steinbeck, Aikenite and Stormy's Majesty.
The time for the Jim Dandy was 1:47.98 on a fast track.
Winslow Homer, also trained by Dutrow, was scratched in order to run in Sunday's Curlin Stakes at Saratoga.
A Little Warm notched his fourth career win with Saturday's triumph and added $300,000 to his bankroll. The colt has lifetime earnings of $608,880 in nine starts.
"I felt strongly he was going to run a terrific race," Dutrow said, "but I don't know if that was going to be good enough to win. We work so hard with these animals, and when you achieve a race like this, it's bigger than life."
Early this year the three-year-old won the Spectacular Bid Stakes at Gulfstream Park and followed with second-place finishes in the Hutcheson and Louisiana Derby.
A Little Warm returned $10.20, $5.50 and $3.80. Miner's Reserve paid $13.60 and $7.90, and Afleet Express paid $3.50 to show.
It was announced on Friday that 2009 Horse of the year Rachel Alexandra will make her next start in Saratoga's Personal Ensign Stakes on Sunday, August 29.
"Rachel feels very much at home among the great Saratoga fans," said Jess Jackson, who owns the filly with Harold McCormick, in a statement. "It's an historic race, named after a great champion. The timing is right for Rachel. She's been coming back into her stride and this will help her prepare for the rest of her campaign and the Breeders' Cup later this year."
The Personal Ensign is a 1 1/4-mile race for fillies and mares with a purse of $300,000.

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.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend. Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
