Injury scratches Hurricane Ike from Preakness

Horseracing Betting Lines

05/12/2010 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hurricane Ike, winner of last month's Derby Trial, has been withdrawn from the Preakness Stakes with a leg injury. Trainer John Sadler made the announcement Wednesday morning.

"My horse isn't so fine. It's something that came up this morning. I got a call telling me that he was off behind," said Sadler from Hollywood Park.

Assistant trainer Larry Benevidez, who has been overseeing the colt training at Churchill Downs, informed Sadler of the unspecified injury to Hurricane Ike's left hind leg.

"This is pretty fresh, but it looks similar to the problem he had at Oak Tree," said Sadler, referring to a condition last fall at Santa Anita Park that delayed the colt's three-year-old season. "He might have re-injured himself in the same area.

"This is extremely disappointing. It's disappointing, but what can you do? Sometimes they don't cooperate. Hopefully, we'll get him into some big races later this year."

Owned by Ike and Dawn Thrash, Hurricane Ike was second earlier this year in the Bay Shore Stakes to Eightyfiveinafifty at Aqueduct. He has won two of eight career starts for $249,732.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
