Life At Ten is tops in Del 'Cap

Horseracing Betting Lines

07/17/2010 - Stanton, DE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Odds-on favorite Life At Ten took the lead shortly after the start and proceeded to dominate in winning Saturday's $750,000 Delaware Handicap at Delaware Park.

The victory in the 1 1/4-mile race automatically puts Life At Ten into this year's Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic at Churchill Downs in November.

Trained by Todd Pletcher, the five-year-old mare notched her sixth straight win and her fifth consecutive stakes victory. Pletcher also added a fourth Del 'Cap win to his resume.

Ridden by John Velazquez, Life At Ten was sent off as the 3-5 favorite in the six-horse field. She was coming off a victory in the Ogden Phipps Handicap at Belmont Park on June 12.

Perfect in four starts this year, Life At Ten was never seriously challenged as she covered the 1 1/4-miles in 2:03.21 on a fast track.

Finishing second, three-lengths back, was Miss Singhsix, who won the Obeah Handicap at Delaware Park last month. She was followed by Funny Moon, Milwaukee Appeal, Miss Match and Million Seller.

"On paper it looked like she was closing the speed, but you never know," and Pletcher. "She was fortunate to get an easy first quarter and half and she really had a lot left in the stretch, We will probably look at the Personal Ensign at Saratoga next and go from there.

"It is just special to win the Delaware Handicap because it is such an important race for fillies and mares. We have always looked at the Del 'Cap as a great opportunity. It has a great tradition and great purse and we have been fortunate enough to win the race four times."

Owned by Candy DeBartolo, Life At Ten captured the Rare Treat Stakes at Aqueduct in February and followed with a win of the Sixty Sails at Hawthorne in April.

As a four-year-old, Life At Ten closed 2009 with consecutive wins in an allowance race and the Snit Stakes. She has won seven of 14 career starts for $909,267, including $450,000 from the Del 'Cap win.

Previously, Pletcher won the Del 'Cap with Irving's Baby (2001), Fleet Indian (2006) and Unbridled Belle (2007). He joins Hall of Fame member Henry Clark as the only trainers to win the event four times.

Life At Ten returned $3.20, $2.40 and $2.10. Miss Singhsix paid $3.20 and $2.40, and Funny Moon paid $2.20 to show.

Earlier on the card, John Velazquez rode Treat Gently to victory in the $200,000 Robert G. Memorial. The Del 'Cap is the second for Velazquez. In 2002, he rode Summer Colony for the win.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds  
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.

Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
