07/04/2010 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tizdejavu, ridden by Jesus Castanon, led every step of the way to win Sunday's $205,625 Firecracker Handicap at Churchill Downs. The race featured 2009 Kentucky Derby winner Mine That Bird making his 2010 debut.
The one-mile turf event had a field of 14 horses even with the scratch of Tybalt. Mine That Bird was the 5-2 favorite and last year's runner-up Inca King was 5-1. Tizdejavu and Public Speaker were both 4-1.
Tizdejavu got an excellent start and quickly took the lead. The five-year-old took the field around the clubhouse turn and into the backstretch. Running in second was Inca King ridden by Victor Lebron.
Mine That Bird with Calvin Borel riding was racing last for much of the race, his first ever start on turf.
Trained by Greg Fox, Tizdejavu extended his lead as the field entered the stretch with Public Speaker joining Inca King in second. The pacesetter hit the wire 1 1/2-lengths ahead of Public Speaker who nosed out Inca King for second-place.
Mine That Bird had a late rally coming into the stretch, but never offered any challenge to the leaders.
Completing the order of finish was Veiled Prophet, Unbridle's Dream, Skipadate, Wise River, Mine That Bird, Pop Tarrt, Attempted Humor, Driving Snow, Baryshnikov, Euroears and Orthodox.
Tizdejavu completed the mile in 1:35.98 on a firm turf course.
Owned by Michael Cooper and Pamela Ziebarth, Tizdejavu added $116,016 to his bankroll. The veteran runner has won eight of 16 career starts for $693,153. The Firecracker is the third straight win for the five-year-old.
Last month at Churchill Downs, Tizdejavu defeated Public Speaker by half a length in the Opening Verse Stakes.
Tizdejavu paid $10.20, $5.00 and $3.60. Public Speaker returned $4.60 and $3.80, and Inca King paid $4.20 to show.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.

As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.
Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1.
