Dulgheru, Szavay land in Budapest quartersTennis Betting Lines07/08/2010 - Budapest, Hungary (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Second-seeded Alexandra Dulgheru of Romania and reigning champion Agnes Szavay of Hungary were among Thursday's second-round winners at the $220,000 Budapest Grand Prix. Dulgheru snuck past struggling former top-10 Russian Anna Chakvetadze 7-6 (7-5), 1-6, 6-1 in a match that was completed on Thursday after it was suspended because of darkness here on Wednesday. Up next for the 21-year-old Dulgheru will be Latvian Anastasija Sevastova. The seventh-seeded Szavay, meanwhile, continued her winning ways at her home tournament by handling Austrian Yvonne Meusburger 7-5, 6-3 on the red clay here. Szavay, who defeated Swiss lefthander Patty Schnyder in last year's Budapest finale, will meet France's Alize Cornet in Friday's quarterfinals. In other Thursday action, fourth-seeded Spaniard Anabel Medina Garrigues advanced with a 7-5, 6-3 decision against Hungary's Greta Arn, while the wild card Cornet upended third-seeded Swiss Timea Bacsinszky 6-0, 6-4, and Czech Zuzana Ondraskova derailed sixth-seeded Italian Roberta Vinci 6-4, 6-0. The other quarters will pit Medina Garrigues against the qualifier Ondraskova and eighth-seeded Slovenian Polona Hercog versus the 31-year-old Schnyder. The 2010 Budapest titlist will take home $37,000.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details. According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800). Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund. ''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.'' Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby. ''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.'' Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year. ”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?'' For complete odds on the Kentucky Derby, visit MySportsbook.com.
