A Little Warm comes up hot in Delaware
Horseracing Betting Lines
06/29/2010 -
Stanton, DE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Three months after finishing second in the
Louisiana Derby, A Little Warm got back into action Tuesday afternoon at
Delaware Park. The three-year-old colt returned to racing in a 1 1/16-mile
allowance race as the 3-2 morning-line favorite.
Ridden by John Velazquez, A Little Warm ran second behind Miner's Reserve on
Delaware's main track. Miner's Reserve, trained by Nick Zito and ridden by
Jeremy Rose, took the four horse field up the backstretch and around the final
turn.
Sent off as the 3-5 favorite, A Little Warm finally drew even with the 6-5
second choice at the top of the stretch. The favorite notched his second win
of the year and the third of his career with a 2 1/4-length victory over
Miner's Reserve. A Little Warm stopped the timer at 1:43.60.
There was no show wagering due to the small field. A Little Warm returned
$3.20 and $2.10, Miner's Reserve paid $2.60.
"We did not feel our horse was 100 percent going into the race today," said
trainer Tony Dutrow, "and for him to give us a performance like that and to
fight as hard he did to beat a really nice horse, I think we have to be really
happy and looking forward to his future."
Owned by Edward Evans, A Little Warm was originally considered for the
Preakness Stakes on May 15. However, he was withdrawn from consideration about
a week before the Triple Crown race following an unsatisfactory endoscopic
examination.
A Little Warm began 2010 by winning the $100,000 Spectacular Bid Stakes on
January 9 at Gulfstream Park. He then came up second to D'Funnybone in the
$150,000 Hutcheson Stakes at the South Florida track.
Tuesday's win put A Little Warm's career earnings at $308,880 in eight starts.
Dutrow has the colt nominated to the Barbaro Stakes for three-year-olds at
Delaware Park on July 10. However, it appears A Little Warm will rejoin the
top echelon of three-year-olds this summer.
"I think right now, Mr. Evans is looking at the Jim Dandy (July 31) at
Saratoga for his next start," noted Dutrow.
The Jim Dandy is the traditional prep race for the Travers at Saratoga at the
end of August. One day after the Jim Dandy is the Haskell Invitational at
Monmouth Park.
In 2009, Rachel Alexandra won the Haskell with Summer Bird in second. Summer
Bird came back to win the Travers and eventually be voted the year's champion
three-year-old colt.

Colts give the ‘D’ its due
The Indianapolis Colts know that winning the Super Bowl last season put a huge target on their backs, and they expect opponents to go all-out to knock them from the top of the mountain.
They’ll get their first test from the New Orleans Saints this Thursday night. The defending champs had nothing but good things to say about the New Orleans defense this past week, praising their opponents’ pass rush and run-stopping abilities.
"They play very aggressively," head coach Tony Dungy told the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "They play a lot of man-to-man coverage, and they come after you. They have good pass rushers, and they're going to try to pressure us, I'm sure."
Both center Jeff Saturday and quarterback Peyton Manning gave New Orleans’ front four props, admitting keeping guys like Will Smithand Charles Grant contained would be a tall task for the offensive line.
New Orleans ranked second in total defense during the preseason at a sportsbook, allowing just under 233 yards per game. Last season, the defense finished 11th in the league after giving up 307.3 yards and 20.1 points per contest.
Not so sound on the ground
If Indianapolis' efficient offense has a weakness it has to be its running attack. The Colts one-two-punch of Dominic Rhodes and Joseph Addai is no longer, leaving the bulk of the carries to Addai, the second-year back out of LSU.
Former Saskatchewan Roughrider Kenton Keith was named Addai’s backup this week after beating out DeDe Dorsey for the second-string position. Indy has only three backs on the roster right now, including fullback Luke Lawton, and coach Dungy is aware of the thinness of his ground game. Sports Betting lines on the game can be found at BettingExpress.com
“We’ll continue to look. Luke Lawton’s done a good job for us too. So probably getting a third true tailback is something that we’d like to do,” Dungy told the Indiana Tribune-Star.
Last season, Addai rushed for over 1,000 yards in his rookie campaign and scored seven touchdowns on the ground.
Brees says bring it on
Opening the season on the road against the defending Super Bowl champions is not the way most teams would like to kick off their year – unless you’re the New Orleans Saints or their quarterback Drew Brees. This internet Sportsbooks had the Saints as the favorites.
Brees told the New Orleans Times-Picayune that he is excited to get the regular season started and the Colts are a great challenge for him and his teammates. The 28-year-old QB, entering his second season with the Saints, is expecting a wild environment in the RCA Dome this Thursday when the franchise celebrates its 2007-2007 championship.
Brees said he sees the opening game scheduling as an honor and a testament to how well New Orleans did last season. The Saints missed facing the Colts in the Super Bowl by one game, losing to the Chicago Bearsin the NFC Championship game.
"I mean, people think we can hang with these guys," Brees told reporters. "Even if they didn't, it wouldn't matter what they thought because as a team we're very confident. We know what we can do. We're not satisfied where we finished the season last year. And we've been looking forward to this opportunity for a long time."
SportsBooks ready for a shootout
Oddsmakers are preparing for some fireworks this Thursday when the NFL season kicks off. online Sportsbooks have Thursday’s total set at a whopping 52 points, accounting for two of the league’s most explosive offenses.
“This is like must-see TV,” Saints cornerback and former Colt Jason David told the Baton Rouge Advocate. “It’s two exciting offenses with great players. You’ve got a lot of star power on offense. At any given time a big play can happen. If I was a fan, I wouldn’t miss a snap.”
New Orleans, who ranked No.1 in total offense last season, can go blow-for-blow with the Colts’ attack. Head coach Sean Payton’s offensive schemes will get even better production out of Drew Brees, Reggie Bush and receiver Marques Colston now that they’ve each had a season of playing together under their belts.
The Saints and Colts were the top two passing teams in the NFL last year, but while Indianapolis managed to put up almost 27 points per game, New Orleans struggled to capitalize on their efforts. The Saints ranked fifth in points per game.
“Yards are great,” running backDeuce McAllister told reporters, “but to be able to score more touchdowns would be important for us.”
