Careless Jewel shines in Alabama Stakes

Horseracing Betting Lines

08/22/2009 - Saratoga Springs, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Careless Jewel, winner of the Delaware Oaks, ran away from the field down the stretch to capture Saturday's $600,000 Alabama Stakes for three-year-old fillies at Saratoga Race Course. The gray filly emulated Rachel Alexandra by posting an 11-length victory over her seven rivals.

Ridden by Robert Landry, Careless Jewel was first out of the gate and was joined by Be Fair. Be Fair took the lead entering the clubhouse turn with Careless Jewel second on the outside and 5-2 favorite Milwaukee Appeal running in third.

Be Fair, ridden by Julien Leparoux, took the field up the backstretch with Careless Jewel pressing the pace followed by Milwaukee Appeal and Casanova Move.

As the field approached the far turn Be Fair and Careless Jewel were on even terms as Milwaukee Appeal and jockey John Velazquez advanced from the outside.

Careless Jewel took the lead on the final turn as Milwaukee Appeal grabbed second in the 1 1/4 mile race. Trained by Josie Carroll, Careless Jewel quickly opened her advantage over her challengers and won easily on a track labeled as 'good.'

Milwaukee Appeal, winner of the Woodbine Oaks, finished second followed by Casanova Move, Sweet and Flawless, Don't Forget Gil, Be Fair, Wynning Ride and Funny Moon.

The time for the 129th Alabama was 2:03.24.

"When we first stepped up from sprinting to go a mile and a sixteenth," said Carroll, "we thought this filly would stretch out."

Careless Jewel was coming off a front-running victory in the Delaware Oaks in July at Delaware Park as a 10-1 longshot. Owned by Donver Stable, the filly picks up $360,000 with Saturday's win to bring her career earnings to $582,846. Based at Woodbine in Toronto, Careless Jewel has won four of five starts, all this year.

Careless Jewel returned $7.80, $4.60 and $3.60. Milwaukee Appeal paid $3.90 and $3.00, and Casanova Move paid $5.90 to show.

Proud Spell, eventual three-year-old filly champion, won the 2008 Alabama Stakes.

On Friday, TVG and its parent company Betfair, Ltd. pledged an additional $400,000 to The New York Racing Association (NYRA) to invite Preakness Stakes winner Rachel Alexandra and champion mare Zenyatta to participate in the Beldame Stakes at Belmont Park on Saturday, October 3. With the $400,000 title sponsorship by TVG-Betfair, NYRA will raise the purse of the Beldame Stakes to $1 million if both Rachel Alexandra and Zenyatta run in the event.

Football Betting Sportsbook Accepts Credit Cards

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.

As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.

Bet 2010 Super Bowl Odds

The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.

Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).

But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.

Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.

Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:

Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1

Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2

New York Giants - 9 - 2

Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).

Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.

So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.

And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.

They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.

Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.

But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.

Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.

Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.

Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.

Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?

Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.

In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.

Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.

Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.

The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.

The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.
