Horseracing Betting Lines

05/24/2010 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra put in a solid workout Monday morning at Churchill Downs. The four-year-old filly had Shaun Bridgmohan in the saddle for the five-furlong training session.

Trained by Steve Asmussen, Rachel went the five-furlongs in 1:00 2/5 on a fast track. She galloped out six-furlongs in 1:12 4/5 and seven-furlongs in 1:26.

"She looked great and galloped out super," Asmussen said. "She's doing well. It was just very nice. It was nice and smooth, covered ground well and was out very strong."

Owned by Stonestreet Stables and Harold McCormick, the champion racehorse is still seeking her first win of the year. She suffered her first loss of 2010, after going undefeated in eight starts last year, at the Fair Grounds on March 13 to Zardana by three-quarters of a length in the New Orleans Ladies Classic. Rachel was again second in the La Troienne at Churchill Downs on April 30 to Unrivaled Belle.

A possible start for Rachel could be the $600,000 Stephen Foster Handicap at Churchill Downs on Saturday, June 12. She would be facing male thoroughbreds in the 1 1/8-mile race, including Woodford Reserve Turf Classic winner General Quarters.

In 2009 the filly defeated three-year-old colts in the Preakness and Haskell Invitational, and older males in the Woodward.

Rachel Alexandra has career earnings of just over $3 million with 11 wins in 16 lifetime races.
