One More Laugh claims Cane Pace

Horseracing Betting Lines

09/06/2010 - Freehold, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Odds-on favorite One More Laugh rolled to victory Labor Day in the $300,000 Cane Pace at Freehold Raceway. The Cane Pace is the first of Pacing's Triple Crown races.

Pacing's Triple Crown will continue with the Little Brown Jug on Thursday, September 23 at the Delaware County Fairgrounds in Ohio and the Messenger Pace at Yonkers Raceway on Saturday, November 6.

One More Laugh, driven by Tim Tetrick, broke from the inside post in the eight horse field. On Friday morning BG's Folly was scratched after becoming sick. He was replaced in the field by Foreign Officer.

Trained by co-owner Ray Schnittker, the three-year-old gelding was challenged around the first turn by Delmarvalous, but shook free up the backstretch the first time on the half-mile track. One More Laugh covered the first half-mile in :54 4/5.

Around the clubhouse turn the second time I'm Gorgeous ranged up on the outside to get within striking distance of One More Laugh. Around the final turn Rockin Image moved into second, but could not keep up with the favorite.

One More Laugh, the 7-10 favorite, paced the mile in a stakes record 1:50 3/5 and posted a three-length victory. Vintage Master set the previous record of 1:50 4/5 in winning last year's Cane Pace.

Rockin Image was second and Urgent Action finished third followed by Delmarvalous, Valentino, Woodstock, Foreign Officer and I'm Gorgeous.

The victory is the first for both the driver and trainer in the Cane Pace. Schnittker owns the horse with Mathias Meinzinger and Jerry Silva.

Should One More Laugh go on and claim the Little Brown Jug and Messenger, he would become the 11th Triple Crown champion. No Pan Intended was the last to sweep the three races in 2003.

Earlier this year One More Laugh won the $1 million Meadowlands Pace. He also captured the Art Rooney Pace at Yonkers. He was second to Rock N Roll Heaven in the $500,000 Battle of the Brandywine at Harrah's Chester. Rock N Roll Heaven was runner-up in the Meadowlands Pace and did not compete in the Cane.

This year One More Laugh has won five of 11 starts for more than $1 million. In his career the pacer has earned more than $1.66 million with 14 wins in 23 starts.

One More Laugh returned $3.40, $2.10 and $2.10. Rockin Image paid $4.20 and $3.80, and Urgent Action paid $9.00 to show.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
Michael Bush (RB, Louisville)
Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia)
Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville)
Chris Leak (QB, Florida)
