Horseracing Betting Lines

11/05/2011 - Louisville. KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Court Vision outfought Turallure to win Saturday's $2 million Breeders' Cup Mile at Churchill Downs. Three-time defending winner Goldikova finished third and survived an objection.

Goldikova went off as the 6-5 favorite in the 13-horse field. Last year's runner-up Gio Ponti was the 5-1 second pick and Court Vision was 64-1.

Get Stormy set the pace while the favorite was a couple lengths back on the inside. Goldikova had a short lead coming out of the final turn with Court Vision second and Woodbine Mile winner Turallure third.

The three fought down the stretch, but Goldikova could not hold her short lead. Court Vision and Turallure hit the wire together with the longest priced horse in the field getting the nose victory.

Goldikova closed her career with a third in the race she made history. She was kept in that spot by the stewards after reviewing the race. Gio Ponti was fourth.

The time for the Mile was 1:37.05.

Court Vision was ridden by Robby Albarado for trainer Dale Romans and owner B. Wayne Hughes. The win was worth $1.08 million and the six-year-old has won nine of 31 starts for more than $3.7 million. He was coming off a seventh in the Woodbine Mile.

Court Vision returned a record $131.60, $48.60 and $21.40. Turallure paid $10.00 and $7.00, and Goldikova paid $2.40 to show.

Football Betting Lines

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
