Freehold, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Pacing's Triple Crown gets started on Labor
Day with the running of the $300,000 Cane Pace at Freehold Raceway. Eight
three-year-old pacers have been entered for the one-mile stakes.
The Triple Crown will continue with the Little Brown Jug on Thursday,
September 23 at the Delaware County Fairgrounds in Ohio and the Messenger Pace
at Yonkers Raceway on Saturday, November 6.
Meadowlands Pace winner One More Laugh will start from the inside post for the
Cane Pace. The gelding will be driven by Tim Tetrick for co-owner and trainer
Ray Schnittker.
Along with the Meadowlands Pace, One More Laugh also claimed the Art Rooney
Pace this year at Yonkers. He was second last time out to Rock N Roll Heaven
in the $500,000 Battle of the Brandywine at Harrah's Chester. Rock N Roll
Heaven was second in the Meadowlands Pace.
This year One More Laugh has won four of 10 starts for $924,614. In his career
the pacer has earned more than $1.5 million with 13 wins in 22 starts.
Breaking from post two will be Delmarvalous and driver Brian Sears. Sears won
the 2007 Cane Pace with Always A Virgin.
Trained by co-owner George Teague, Jr., Delmarvalous won the $500,000 Delvin
Miller Adios earlier this year and he was fifth in the $500,000 Battle of the
Brandywine. He has won two of 11 races in 2010 for $443,070.
Teague also has I'm Gorgeous in the race. The three-year-old will be driven by
Andy Miller from post four.
Last week I'm Gorgeous went wire-to-wire to win the Cane Pace elimination in
1:50 4/5 to equal the track record. The colt won three of 12 races this year
with $315,446 in earnings. He won the $200,000 Battle of the Brandywine
Consolation at Harrah's Chester on August 22.

American Idol odds : Blake Lewis the Early Standout
An important American Idol betting lines recap from February 20 Guys episode. The 12 men came out flat overall with Blake Lewis appearing to have the early edge after the first hour and a half.
Rudy - was quite good singing "Free Ride" to start off. Randy was not impressed though. Paula thought he started off fantastic. "Never had anyone stop off so lively" said Paula but Simon (who does not like Rudy) does not feel he has a distinct voice and was not impressed either.
Brandon was a little pitchy according to Randy and Paula agreed. Simon said he was a good singer but the song was "too safe" and he needs to make an impact. He was listed at +1200 odds or $1200 paid out on a $100 bet should he win the competition.
Big favorite Sundance came in with a flat version of "Knights in White Satin" and the judges let him have it, including Paula. Randy claimed the song was out of pitch throughout.
Korean American - and a Jenny Woo favorite - Paul Kim was up next. Another pitchy flat one but Randy said he still liked his potential. Kim at +3000 odds was said to have sung a "third rate version of that (George Michael) song" according to Simon Cowell. He sang "Careless Whisper".
22 year old Chris Richardson was up next. He was listed with +1100 odds coming in. He got the best response from the judges though Simon did not believe the vocal was that great.
Nick was boring and pitchy. Simon didn't think he was that bad though and predicted he would be back next week. Nick Pedro was a big +3000 dog coming into this competition.
Beat boxer Blake Lewis was listed with early +1000 odds or $1000 payout on a $100 bet if he were to become the next American Idol winner odds . These of course were the early odds. He was considered original for picking an "odd song". He did not beat box and the judges felt it was the best vocal of the night.
Sanjaya came in as the second biggest favorite after Chris Sligh but his performance Tuesday night was not very good.
Chris Sleigh was the early favorite at +450 odds. Great voice and a great sense of humor. He's a real standout. Randy felt it was on point but maybe ahead of the chorus a little bit. Simon Cowell said he felt like he was in some "sort of weird student gig".
Jared Cotter followed. He was listed with +2000 odds early on to win the competition. The judges felt he needs to take more risks but looked good.
22-year old AJ Talbado, who has tried out for American Idol five times, was up next. "Kind of a theme park performance" said Simon. Though the judges felt he performed okay. Simon did feel AJ might be better than he originally thought.
Phil - this season's military favorite - came into this competition with +1200 odds to win the competition. He was the last to perform. He was certainly strong enough to get through this stage of the competition and perhaps the best one after a shaky start.
Tomorrow night, the ladies perform and I sure hope they do a better job than the boys. Check out all the American Idol betting odds here.
