Horseracing Betting Lines

10/25/2008 - Yonkers, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Leading three-year-old pacer Somebeachsomewhere out-dueled Shadow Play down the stretch to capture the $650,000 Messenger Stakes at Yonker Raceway. The Messenger is the third and final race in pacing's Triple Crown.

Since losing to Art Official in the Meadowlands Pace this past July, Somebeachsomewhere has won eight straight. The colt, trained by co-owner Brent McGrath, won a Bluegrass Stakes division at Lexingtons Red Mile last month and also took the North America Cup this year at Woodbine.

Overall in 2008, Somebeachsomewhere has won 12 of 13 starts for more than $2.1 million. For his career he has won 17 of 18 starts and more than $2.5 million.

Saturday night at Yonkers, six three-year-old pacers went postward with five betting interests. Shadow Play, winner of the Little Brown Jug, set the pace for the final five furlongs. On the backstretch Somebeachsomewhere moved into second ahead of Santana Blue Chip.

Sent off as the 1-5 favorite, Somebeachsomewhere hooked up with the 2-1 second choice Shadow Play around the turn for home. Driver Paul MacDonnell urged the favorite down the stretch to overtake Shadow Play late and post a head victory.

The time for one-mile Messenger on a sloppy track was 1:52 1/5.

Completing the order of finish was Legacy N Diamonds, Santanna Blue Chip, Dali and Brother Ray.

There was only win wagering and Somebeachsomewhere paid $2.60.

With Somebeachsomewhere claiming the Messenger, three different pacers have won this year's Triple Crown races: Art Official in the Cane Pace and Shadow Play with the Little Brown Jug.
