Horseracing Betting Lines

01/26/2007 - Hallandale Beach, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The first $1 million race of the year for older thoroughbreds is set to go on Saturday. The Sunshine Millions Classic has drawn a field of a dozen handicap horses for the Gulfstream Park race.

Lava Man won the race last year when it was held at Santa Anita Park. He will remain in California on Saturday to run in the $500,000 Sunshine Million Turf.

The Classic is the featured stakes race in the annual Sunshine Millions series. This is the fifth edition of the series which features Florida and California bred horses.

Sweetnorthernsaint, the winner of last year's Illinois Derby, has been installed as the 9-5 morning line favorite in the 1 1/8 mile event. He will start from the far outside post with Ramon Dominguez riding. The four-year-old gelding has earnings of $642,300 in 11 starts and five wins.

Owned by Joseph Balsamo and Ted Theos, Sweetnorthernsaint is trained by Michael Trombetta. The gelding was the 5-1 favorite in last year's Kentucky Derby where he finished seventh to Barbaro.

The 4-1 second choice is Texcess who last raced in October at Santa Anita Park. Texcess will be ridden by Garrett Gomez from post 9.

The five-year-old is owned by Scott and Wayne Anastasi and Carl Van Burger, and trained by Mike Mitchell. The gelding has won four of 21 starts for more than $1.2 million.

Completing the field in post position order are Dry Martini, Get Funky, Summer Book, Blazing Rate, Silver Wagon, Rehoboth, Papi Chullo, McCann's Mojave, Bob's Proud Moment and Armenian Summer.

The Sunshine Millions Classic has a post-time of 5:45 p.m. (et) and will be televised on NBC.

American Idol Betting Odds: Season 6  

The online gambling websites are in the process of deciphering each American Idol contestant and his or her chances of winning Season 6 to come up with the early American Idol betting lines.

Tim Dalton of MySportsbook.com has been locked away in a soundproof room coming up with all the latest tallies, we are told. "American Idol has become one of the most significant betting events of the year," claims Jack Black of MySportsbook.com.  "Last year, millions were bet during the season across the globe, not just in America.

It's tough early on since we really do not have a glimpse as to how well each of these individuals will perform solo on a week-to-week basis.  It's like Week 1 of the NFL.  Pre-season means nada!

We do know the 24 finalists however.

Sanjaya Malakar is the young man whose sister failed to make it into the Top 24.  He's very low key but - unless he totally flubs - will probably win over the young girlie vote for a few weeks anyway.  He's too young to go all the way, according to Payton O'Brien. 

Brandon Rogers - Who?

Phil Stacy is the military guy who missed his daughter's birth because of the Memphis audition.  He should go a good distance.

Chris Sligh - He's got the humor and in many ways he's the Anti-American Idol much like last year's winner Taylor Hicks was.  And this is why he'll probably get pretty far in this competition.  He's chubby, white with a big curly afro....but more importantly, a great voice!  People love "real", not "real cute" to go all the way. 

"Blake Lewis should go far because of his uniqueness and looks.  He's the boy next store with a twist - he beat boxes.  But on top of this, he's a great singer, and I adore him," Payton O'Brien relayed.

A talented beat-boxer Blake Lewis was a hit during the group sing in Hollywood but Simon explained that this is a singing contest just before he told him he was “in.”

Paul Kim has caught our own roving reporter, Jenny Woo's eyes. 

"I love the fact that there is a Korean American on the show and he is bound to get more Asians tuning into the show," Woo said from her Miami Beach estate.  "There has never been a major presence of Asian-Americans on American Idol in the past.  He's a hottie with a nice voice so that should help to take him far.  Expect heavy betting action from the Asian community."

Sundance Head - He's not perfect, but he's got the personality that will take him through a few weeks, plus he's got the lineage (son of Roy Head - whose 1965 single, "Treat Her Right," hit No. 5 in the charts) 

And the others:

Rudy Cardinas
AJ Tabaldo - the 5th time is the charm
Nicolas Pedro
Chris Richardson
Jared Cotter

The girls

"Melinda Doolittle has one of the best voices," says MySportsbook.com Reporter and an acclaimed dancer in her own right, Destiney Lewis.  "It is great to see a back up singer step out like she has.  The girl needs to gain more confidence but that can also be a positive.  I think she will go far."

Alena Alexander - Those tears (she never seems to stop bawling) should get her far.

"Single mom Lakisha Jones I suspect will be a pretty big favorite entering Week 1 of the competition," says Destiny Williams.  Jones is an excellent singer and down to earth.  "She'll have a wide appeal," echoed O'Brien.

Nicole Trellis - Seems to exert confidence.

Amy Krebs - a powerful singer.

Antonella Barba
Gina Glocksen
Hailey Scanardo
Jordan Sparks
Stephanie Edwards
Leslie Hunt
Sabrina Sloan
