07/03/2009 - Oceanport, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two days after Arkansas Derby winner Papa Clem arrived at Monmouth Park for next month's Haskell Invitational. Belmont Stakes champ Summer Bird settled into his stall at the Jersey shore track.
With the arrival of Summer Bird and Papa Clem, the three projected favorites for the track's marquee race are now stabled here. Illinois Derby winner Musket Man is based at Monmouth Park.
Trained by Tim Ice, Summer Bird arrived by van from Louisiana early Friday morning. Ice accompanied the colt from Louisiana Downs with a stopover at Churchill Downs. A sleepy Ice said the three-year-old handled the trip better than the trainer.
"I'm tired, but he got off the van full of himself at Churchill," noted Ice, "and he was full of himself when we got here. He shipped great. I just want to take a nap.
"He'll be out on the track to train on Saturday and Sunday, and if everything's okay with him, he'll work on Monday. He's due for a work. After that, I'll get him on a Sunday work rotation. I like to work him a week before a race, and the Haskell is on a Sunday, so that will be his work day after this week."
Summer Bird, 11-1 in the Belmont Stakes, has two wins in five starts this year for $723,040. He was third to Papa Clem in the Arkansas Derby and sixth in the Kentucky Derby.
Owned and bred by Drs. K.K. and V. Devi Jayaraman, Summer Bird will be ridden in the $1 million Haskell by three-time Eclipse Award winner Kent Desormeaux. The pair combined to capture the Belmont Stakes and the jockey won last year's Haskell with Big Brown.
Papa Clem will tune-up for the Haskell with a start in the track's Long Branch Stakes on Saturday, July 11. Local favorite Musket Man is training up to the Haskell on Sunday, August 2.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
