Life At Ten is tops in Del 'Cap

Horseracing Betting Lines

07/17/2010 - Stanton, DE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Odds-on favorite Life At Ten took the lead shortly after the start and proceeded to dominate in winning Saturday's $750,000 Delaware Handicap at Delaware Park.

The victory in the 1 1/4-mile race automatically puts Life At Ten into this year's Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic at Churchill Downs in November.

Trained by Todd Pletcher, the five-year-old mare notched her sixth straight win and her fifth consecutive stakes victory. Pletcher also added a fourth Del 'Cap win to his resume.

Ridden by John Velazquez, Life At Ten was sent off as the 3-5 favorite in the six-horse field. She was coming off a victory in the Ogden Phipps Handicap at Belmont Park on June 12.

Perfect in four starts this year, Life At Ten was never seriously challenged as she covered the 1 1/4-miles in 2:03.21 on a fast track.

Finishing second, three-lengths back, was Miss Singhsix, who won the Obeah Handicap at Delaware Park last month. She was followed by Funny Moon, Milwaukee Appeal, Miss Match and Million Seller.

"On paper it looked like she was closing the speed, but you never know," and Pletcher. "She was fortunate to get an easy first quarter and half and she really had a lot left in the stretch, We will probably look at the Personal Ensign at Saratoga next and go from there.

"It is just special to win the Delaware Handicap because it is such an important race for fillies and mares. We have always looked at the Del 'Cap as a great opportunity. It has a great tradition and great purse and we have been fortunate enough to win the race four times."

Owned by Candy DeBartolo, Life At Ten captured the Rare Treat Stakes at Aqueduct in February and followed with a win of the Sixty Sails at Hawthorne in April.

As a four-year-old, Life At Ten closed 2009 with consecutive wins in an allowance race and the Snit Stakes. She has won seven of 14 career starts for $909,267, including $450,000 from the Del 'Cap win.

Previously, Pletcher won the Del 'Cap with Irving's Baby (2001), Fleet Indian (2006) and Unbridled Belle (2007). He joins Hall of Fame member Henry Clark as the only trainers to win the event four times.

Life At Ten returned $3.20, $2.40 and $2.10. Miss Singhsix paid $3.20 and $2.40, and Funny Moon paid $2.20 to show.

Earlier on the card, John Velazquez rode Treat Gently to victory in the $200,000 Robert G. Memorial. The Del 'Cap is the second for Velazquez. In 2002, he rode Summer Colony for the win.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
