Lexington, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Award-winning jockey John Velazquez has been
released from the University of Kentucky Medical Center one day after being
injured at Keeneland on Friday. Velazquez sustained a concussion and will be
sidelined until further notice.
The two-time Eclipse Award winner was involved in a spill during the running
of Keeneland's seventh race Friday. While aboard Tap Dancing, Velazquez
and his horse collided with Whacka Whacka, who fell after clipping the heels
of Rapid Mons.
According to Keeneland's Jim Williams and staff, Velazquez was 'arousable' at
the track's first aid station and transported to the University of Kentucky
Medical Center. Jamie Theriot was the rider on Whacka Whacka, but suffered no
severe injuries and was cleared to continue riding.
The 37-year-old Velazquez currently ranks as North America's sixth-leading
rider by earnings with more than $11.4 million and 10th with 191 wins.
Neither of the horses involved in the spill were injured and both returned to
their respective barns.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship
(September 15, 2007)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the 2007 NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship.
One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.
Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title.
