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.

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.
As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.
The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.
Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).
But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.
Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.
Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:
Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1
Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2
New York Giants - 9 - 2
Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).
Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.
So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.
And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.
They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.
Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.
But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.
Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.
Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.
Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.
Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?
Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.
In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.
Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.
Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.
The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.
The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.
