Horseracing Betting Lines

10/13/2008 - Elmont, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Big Brown has suffered an injury and will not race in the Breeders' Cup Classic at Santa Anita this month.

The communications office at Belmont Park confirmed that the three-year-old injured his right front leg Monday morning while training at Aqueduct.

Owned by IEAH Stables and Paul Pompa Jr., Big Brown was being pointed toward the $5 million Classic on Saturday, October 25 where he was to meet 2007 Horse of the Year Curlin.

Bloodhorse.com is reporting that the colt has been retired from racing. Big Brown is set to enter stud at Three Chimneys Farm in Kentucky following his racing career.

After capturing the first two legs of the Triple Crown, Big Brown was eased down the stretch in the Belmont Stakes to finish last. This year, he also won the Florida Derby, the Haskell Invitational and the Monmouth Stakes on the grass.

Big Brown won seven of eight career starts for more than $3.6 million.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
