11/09/2011 - Lexington, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Champion filly Royal Delta was sold Tuesday night at the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale. The winner of last week's Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic went for $8.5 million to Benjamin Leon's Besilu Stables.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and she's the whole package," said Leon. "As I've said before, my passion is breeding. I can't think of a better mare to breed in the future than her. But I also can't think of a better filly to enjoy now on the track than her. So we're going to enjoy her at the track as long as she can do that, and then there will be the day that she will become a mom and begin to have babies, but no rush on that. We want to give her all the opportunity to do her thing."
The three-year-old filly was sold as part of the dispersal from Palides Investments N.V., Inc of the late Prince Saud bin Khaled.
"The timing couldn't have been more perfect (with winning the Breeders' Cup)," said Ron Wallace, president and general manager of Prince Saud's Chanteclair Farm. "She's a proven package. She'll probably have a better year next year. If you want a racehorse and a broodmare, she's got it all. She is a star."
Royal Delta won Friday's Ladies' Classic by 2 1/2-lengths to secure her position as the top three-year-old filly for 2011.
"It's always tough to lose one like her," Mott said Saturday morning. "We'd love to have her, but I guess that's up to whoever buys her. I'd love to have her back. She's been a really good one.
"She ran a tremendous race. The way she was training on this track (Churchill Downs), we expected a good performance from her."
This year Royal Delta won the Black-Eyed Susan and Alabama Stakes and was second to Havre de Grace in the Beldame. She earned $1,657,400 in seven starts with four wins.

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.
Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
