Discreetly Mine one to beat in Louisiana Derby

Horseracing Betting Lines

03/22/2010 - New Orleans, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Risen Star Stakes winner Discreetly Mine heads a field of 13 three-year-olds for Saturday's $750,000 Louisiana Derby at the Fair Grounds. Formerly run at 1 1/16-miles, the race is now a 1 1/8-mile prep for the Kentucky Derby.

Last year's race was won by Friesan Fire who was then the post-time Kentucky Derby favorite.

Discreetly Mine will again be ridden by Javier Castellano and the pair will start from post seven. Owned by E. Paul Robsham, Discreetly Mine is the 7-2 morning-line favorite.

The colt won the Risen Star Stakes last month by 1 1/2-lengths over Tempted to Tapit after leading the entire race. Trained by Todd Pletcher, Discreetly Mine has won two of seven career starts for a little less than $360,000.

The 4-1 second choice in the program is A Little Warm who was second in the Hutcheson Stakes last month at Gulfstream Park. The colt will break from post five with David Cohen in the saddle.

Trained by Tony Dutrow for Edward Evans, A Little Warm won the Spectacular Bid Stakes at Gulfstream in January. He lost the Hutcheson to D' Funnybone by a length. D' Funnybone won last week's Swale Stakes at the Miami track.

A Little Warm has earned $134,280 with two wins in six lifetime starts.

Breaking from the far outside post will be 5-1 third pick Drosselmeyer. The chestnut colt will be ridden by Kent Desormeaux for WinStar Farm and trainer Bill Mott.

Drosselmeyer is coming off a fourth-place finish in the Risen Star as the 2-1 favorite. He was just 1 3/4-lengths behind Discreetly Mine in the February stakes. The favorite in five of six career starts, the colt has two wins and $86,170.

Here is the complete field for the Louisiana Derby in post position order: Hotep, Patrick Husbands; Mission Impazible, Rajiv Maragh; Fly Down, Jose Lezcano; The Program, Martin Garcia; A Little Warm, David Cohen; Ron the Greek, James Graham; Discreetly Mine, Javier Castellano; Island Soul, Robby Albarado; Stay Put, Jamie Theriot; Wow Wow Wow, John Jacinto; Mister Marti Gras, Shaun Bridgmohan; Backtrack, Shane Sellers and Drosselmeyer, Kent Desormeaux.

Post-time for the 97th Louisiana Derby will be 5:50 p.m. (et). All 13 horses will carry 122 pounds.

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.
