10/24/2008 - Arcadia, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The first day of the 25th annual Breeders' Cup got off to an exciting start when 5-2 second choice Ventura overtook the favorite Indian Blessing down the stretch to win the $1 million Filly and Mare Sprint at Santa Anita Park. This is the first Breeders' Cup to be conducted on a synthetic track.
Owned by Juddmonte Farms, Ventura was ridden by Garrett Gomez for trainer Bobby Frankel. The four-year-old filly took the lead from Indian Blessing, the 9-5 favorite, with about 200 yards to run.
Ventura registered a four-length victory over last year's Breeders' Cup Juvenile Filly champ with Zaftig, the 5-1 third pick, finishing third in the 13 horse field.
The time for the seven-furlongs was 1:19.90 on Santa Anita's Pro-Ride main track.
Ventura earned $500,000 with the win to bring her lifetime earnings to more than $1.3 million. She has won seven of 15 career starts and four wins on artificial surfaces.
Ventura returned $7.60, $3.40 and $3.00. Indian Blessing paid $3.40 and $2.40, and Zaftig paid $4.00 to show.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.
Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season.
MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.
Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
