Big names take to tracks for workouts

Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Some of the biggest names in thoroughbred
racing took to various racetracks for workouts over the last two days. Many of
the horses are expected to see action during the summer.
Undefeated champion mare Zenyatta had a half-mile workout at Hollywood Park on
Sunday morning. The six-year-old breezed four-furlongs in 49 3/5 seconds.
Unbeaten in all 17 career starts, Zenyatta is expected to start in the Clement
L. Hirsch Stakes at Del Mar on Saturday, August 7. The 2009 Breeders' Cup
Classic champ has won the last two editions of the Hirsch.
Also at Hollywood Park, Santa Anita Derby winner Sidney's Candy worked six
furlongs in 1:13 2/5 as he prepares for the $200,000 Swaps Stakes on
Saturday, July 17 at the track.
At Belmont Park on Sunday leading older male thoroughbred Quality Road worked
a half-mile in 50.76 and galloped out in 1:03 1/5.
"He went well," said trainer Todd Pletcher who turned 43 on Saturday.
The four-year-old colt will make his next start in the Whitney Handicap at
Saratoga Race Course on August 7.
Pletcher sent out Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver for a Sunday breeze. The
three-year-old colt went five-furlongs in 1:01 4/5. Owned by WinStar Farm,
Super Saver will make his next start at Monmouth Park in the $1 million
Haskell Invitational on Sunday, August 1.
"We're pointed for the Haskell," said Pletcher. "He's training great and we're
on schedule to be at Monmouth."
Rachel Alexandra and Mine That Bird both had workouts Monday morning at
Churchill Downs. This was Rachel's final work over her home track before the
four-year-old champion heads to Saratoga on Wednesday. Mine That Bird
continues to prep for his first race of 2010.
The filly, with rider Shaun Bridgmohan, worked five-furlongs in 1:03 and
galloped out six-furlongs in 1:17. The 2009 Horse of the Year won the Fleur de
Lis at Churchill Downs earlier this month for her first win of the year.
With Calvin Borel in the saddle. Mine That Bird breezed five-furlongs in 59
4/5 seconds. The 2009 Kentucky Derby winner was timed in 1:14 3/5 for six-
furlongs.
Mine That Bird, who has not started since last November's Breeders' Cup
Classic, could make his 2010 debut during the closing weekend of Churchill
Downs' Spring Meet. The two possible races for the four-year-old are an
allowance race of 1 1/16-miles on Saturday, July 3 or the $175,000 Firecracker
Handicap at a mile on turf the next day.
This Sunday at Woodbine is the Queen's Plate, the biggest thoroughbred event
in Canada. One of the top contenders for Sunday's 151st running of the race,
Artic Fern, suffered an injury on Monday that will prevent him from racing in
the Queen's Plate.

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.
Bet on NFL Football
Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.
Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.
Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.
All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.
A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
