The four-year- old filly advanced one position following a win Saturday at Monmouth Park. Owned by Stonestreet Stable and Hal McCormick, Rachel Alexandra won the $400,000 Lady's Secret Stakes at Monmouth Park by three-lengths. The win moved her up in the poll from fourth to third with 125 points. Champion mare Zenyatta holds steady in first with 15 first-place votes and 182 points. The undefeated six-year-old will have her next start on Saturday, August 7 at Del Mar in the Clement L. Hirsch, a race she has won the last two years. Four-year-old colt Quality Road is second in the voting with four first-place votes and 171 points. Trained by Todd Pletcher, Quality Road is set to start in the Whitney Handicap at Saratoga Race Course also on August 7. Stephen Foster Handicap winner Blame fell one spot to fourth with 124 points. He is also slated for the Whitney Handicap. Preakness champ Lookin At Lucky remains in fifth with 94 points. Trainer Bob Baffert is preparing the colt for Sunday's Haskell Invitational at Monmouth. Eclipse Award winner Gio Ponti stays in sixth with 67 points. The 2009 champion turf and older male will defend his title in next month's Arlington Million. Five-year-old mare Tuscan Evening is seventh with 47 points. Kentucky Oaks winner Blind Luck advances one rung to eighth with 42 points. The three-year-old filly is being pointed to the Alabama Stakes at Saratoga in late August. Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver drops from eighth to ninth with the same 41 points as last week.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one. (September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded. Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up. Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet). For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win. TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures. Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
