Probable Belmont Stakes favorite training at Saratoga
Horseracing Betting Lines
05/26/2010 -
Elmont, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kentucky Derby runner-up Ice Box, the probable
Belmont Stakes favorite, is being trained for the Test of Champions at
Saratoga Race Course by Nick Zito. The colt will be one of two horses that the
Hall of Fame trainer will run in the final jewel of racing's Triple Crown.
Owned by Robert LaPenta, Ice Box will be joined by Richard Pell's Fly Down in
the 1 1/2-mile race on Saturday, June 5. Fly Down is coming off a victory in
the Dwyer Stakes at Belmont Park on May 8.
On Wednesday Ice Box galloped almost two miles on the Oklahoma Training Track
at Saratoga Race Course. The Florida Derby champ will likely have a breeze
Thursday morning.
Fly Down worked four-furlongs last Saturday in 49 2/5 seconds. Zito plans to
bring both colts to Belmont Park next Wednesday.
"Right now, everything is positive and we want to keep it that way," Zito
said. "I'm going to stay here, take care of the horses, and go from there."
Ice Box is the winner of three of eight career starts with $906,535. Fly Down
has earned $182,070 in five starts and three lifetime wins.
Make Music for Me, fourth in the Kentucky Derby, has been galloping at Belmont
Park for trainer Alexis Barba.
Owned by Peter and Ellen Johnson, Make Music for Me has nine career starts
with one win and two second-place finishes. The colt has earned $362,260.
Preakness runner-up First Dude also took a gallop around Belmont Park on
Wednesday morning. First Dude is trained by Dale Romans for owner Donald
Dizney.
"He's doing great," said exercise rider Tammy Fox, who is overseeing First
Dudes preparations for the Belmont Stakes. "He's getting over the track fine;
he's just floating right over it. He's such a big horse with a long stride,
and you don't feel like he's doing anything. He's real easy on himself."
First Dude has one win in seven career starts for $352,160. He was fifth in
the Florida Derby and third in the Blue Grass Stakes.
Also expected to start in the 142nd Belmont Stakes are Game On Dude, Stately
Victor, Drosselmeyer, Stay Put, Uptowncharlybrown, and Spangled Star.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
