Horseracing Betting Lines

05/31/2010 - Elmont, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Trainer Todd Pletcher announced Monday that Interactif will start in this year's 142nd edition of the $1 million Belmont Stakes on Saturday. The three-year-old is owned by brothers Alain and Gerard Wertheimer.

"We decided to call an audible and send him to the Belmont," said Pletcher. "Two works ago, we had it in our minds, and after surveying the field we decided to go.

"His second to Sidney's Candy in the San Felipe was very good, although we were a little disappointed with his performance in the Blue Grass. We had the Derby in mind after [the Blue Grass], but thought the three weeks might be a little fast back."

The colt was fourth in the Blue Grass Stakes to Stately Victor who will also start in the Belmont. In the San Felipe Stakes Interactif was second to eventual Santa Anita Derby champ Sidney's Candy.

Interactif will be ridden by Javier Castellano and puts the field for this year's Belmont at a dozen.

The field for the 1 1/2-mile Belmont will also include Dwyer Stakes runner-up Drosselmeyer, Preakness runner-up First Dude, Dwyer Stakes winner Fly Down, Lone Star Derby champ Game On Dude, Kentucky Derby runner-up Ice Box, Make Music for Me, Spangled Star, Blue Grass Stakes winner Stately Victor, Stay Put, Dave in Dixie and Uptowncharlybrown.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook

Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds.  The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.

Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.

Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
