11/23/2007 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A. P. Arrow, ridden by Ramon Dominguez, snapped a four-race losing streak on Friday with a victory in the $554,000 Clark Handicap at Churchill Downs. The winner was one of three horses in the race trained by Todd Pletcher.
Of the three Plethcer horses, A. P. Arrow was the one getting the least respect. Magna Graduate, the 2005 Clark winner, was 3-1 in the morning-line and Fairbanks, second in the Massachusetts Handicap, was 8-1. A. P. Arrow was 10-1 both in the morning-line and at post-time.
Owned by the Allen Paulson Living Trust, A. P. Arrow registered his first win since capturing the Skip Away Handicap at Gulfstream Park in March. His last start was in the Hawthorne Gold Cup two months ago where he was third to Student Council.
In the Clark, the pace was set by 72-1 longshot Plug Me In with A. P. Arrow never far off the lead. Dominguez moved his mount into position to challenge on the far turn and got to the front coming off the turn.
Brass Hat bumped A. P. Arrow from the outside at the top of the stretch, but Pletcher's horse was able to regain the lead 100 yards from the wire. A. P. Arrow won by three-quarters of a length over Brass Hat with Diamond Stripes third and 2-1 favorite Istan fourth.
The time for the 1 1/8 miles was 1:48.66 on a fast track.
Rounding out the order finish was Fairbanks, Magna Graduate, Going Ballistic, Purim and Plug Me In.
The Clark win was worth $329,741 to push A. P. Arrow's career earnings past the $1 million mark. The five-year-old has won five of 21 lifetime starts and is expected to compete in 2008.
A. P. Arrow returned $22.40, $10.00 and $5.20. Brass Hat paid $13.20 and $8.40, and Diamond Stripes paid $3.20 to show.

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
