Public gets chance to see Rachel Alexandra on Friday

Horseracing Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - Oceanport, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Thoroughbred racing fans should be able to get an up-close look Friday afternoon at 2009 Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra at Monmouth Park. The four-year-old filly will be in the track's paddock in preparation for her Saturday start.

"She'll gallop at 5:45 tomorrow morning," assistant trainer Scott Blasi said Thursday. "We plan to school her in the paddock in the third race."

Rachel Alexandra arrived Tuesday morning at the New Jersey shore track from Saratoga for Saturday's $400,000 Lady's Secret Stakes. She had a final workout for the 1 1/8-mile race on Monday morning at Saratoga and was getting reacquainted with Monmouth Thursday morning.

"Rachel stood in the gate for a while and then had a nice, easy gallop," Blasi said. "She's really doing well. She was full of energy this morning."

Winner of Monmouth's Haskell Invitational in 2009, Rachel will school in the track's paddock during the Friday racing program. The field for the third race will be in the paddock at approximately 2:35 p.m. (et) and the race will go off around 3:05.

The Lady's Secret Stakes will have a field of seven fillies and mares.

Trained by Steve Asmussen, Rachel Alexandra will again be ridden by Calvin Borel and is a prohibitive 1-9 morning-line favorite. The filly began 2010 with two straight second-place finishes, then clobbered her foes by 10 1/2- lengths on June 12 in the Fleur de Lis at Churchill Downs.

Lightly raced Queen Martha is the 8-1 second choice for the Lady's Secret. The four-year-old filly has only six career starts, five of them in England. In her lone race in the U.S., she was second in an allowance race at Monmouth.

"I think we are running for second," said Queen Martha's trainer Patrick Biancone. "But second would be good."

Owned by Robert Trussell, the filly will break from post two with local jockey Joe Bravo riding.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
