Curlin continues training for Breeders' Cup Classic

Horseracing Betting Lines

10/07/2008 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending Breeders' Cup Classic champion Curlin continues his preparations at Santa Anita for a second Classic victory. The reigning Horse of the Year has been stabled at the Los Angeles-area track since his record breaking win in the $750,000 Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont Park on September 27.

Last Thursday Curlin, under the care of assistant trainer Scott Blasi, galloped a mile on the Pro-Ride surface of Santa Anita.

"The most important thing is, he looks just like he has every day that we've trained him," Blasi noted Thursday morning. "He jogs off perfect and he's getting over the ground beautiful, so that's the most important thing."

Since the colt has never raced on a synthetic track, his connections need to see him work over Santa Anita's Pro-Ride surface to determine how comfortable he is prior to his entry into the Breeders' Cup Classic.

On Friday morning the two-time Eclipse Award winner galloped 1 1/8 miles at Santa Anita. Saturday Curlin went 1 1/2 miles over the track and Sunday, thoroughbred racing's first $10 million horse, galloped two-miles.

Monday morning was the big day for Curlin. He posted his first official workout over Santa Anita's Pro-Ride surface. The winner of this year's $6 million Dubai World Cup covered a half-mile in 52.80.

"He looked around quite a bit," said trainer Steve Asmussen who was in attendance. "It'll be interesting the next time he gets on the track. We just wanted to put his mind at ease and let him do all the acclimating. I don't think there was any decision to be made today. We're going to show Curlin the patience he deserves and we're going to do what we think is right."

The anticipated meeting in the Classic between Curlin and leading three-year- old Big Brown is the number one topic in racing circles. Big Brown remains at his home base of Aqueduct as he prepares for his start in the 1 1/4 mile Classic.

Big Brown, owned by IEAH Stables and trained by Rick Dutrow, Jr., has 40- points to lead all Classic division probables. Curlin gained automatic entry into the race with his win in the Jockey Club Gold Cup.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
