Horseracing Betting Lines

06/05/2010 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Reigning Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra has been given the highweight for the Fleur de Lis Handicap on Saturday, June 12 at Churchill Downs. The filly was also assigned weight for the Stephen Foster Handicap to be run the same day at Churchill Downs.

Earlier in the week co-owner Jess Jackson announced that the four-year-old will start in one of four races on June 12. Along with the Stephen Foster and Fleur de Lis, Rachel is also nominated to the Ogden Phipps Handicap at Belmont Park and the Obeah at Delaware Park.

For the Fleur de Lis, Rachel is assigned highweight of 124 pounds and is weighted at 118 pounds for the Stephen Foster. Both races are 1 1/8-miles with the Fleur de Lis for fillies and mares and the Foster an open handicap.

Rachel is also the highweight for the Ogden Phipps. The champion filly will carry 123 pounds if she starts in the 1 1/16-mile race for fillies and mares. The two horses who have defeated Rachel this year are also nominated to the Belmont Park event.

Unrivaled Belle, who won the La Troienne at Churchill Downs on April 30, is assigned 119 pounds and Zardana, winner of the New Orleans Ladies Classic in March, gets 117 pounds.

No weight assignments are available for the Obeah.

Met Mile winner Quality Road is the Stephen Foster highweight at 127 pounds. Since he and Rail Trip (122 pounds) are not expected to start, there are three probable starters who have all been assigned 120 pounds: Arson Squad, Blame and General Quarters.
