06/02/2010 - Louisville, KY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas had 2009 Kentucky Derby winner Mine That Bird workout Wednesday morning at Churchill Downs. The four-year-old gelding worked a half-mile in 48 seconds with his regular jockey Calvin Borel riding.
"He has really blossomed since last fall and has gotten bigger. The time off did him good," Borel said. "He was real good this morning. He went nice and easy and galloped out good."
Lukas took over the training of Mine That Bird last month from Chip Woolley who engineered the 2009 season for owners Dr, Leonard Blach and Mark Allen.
"He went real nice," Lukas said. "It is a delight to see one breeze like that and enjoy what he is doing. He gets over the ground beautifully. Calvin was excited. The first thing he said to me was 'That was something.'"
Mine That Bird galloped out five furlongs in 1:01 2/5. Borel had not been aboard the gelding since they finished ninth behind Zenyatta in the Breeders' Cup Classic last year at Santa Anita Park.
While this year's Breeders' Cup Classic at Churchill Downs is on the calendar, Lukas has not finalized the gelding's first start of 2010.
"When we start, we want him to be dead right," Lukas indicated. "Our long- range plan is the Whitney (Handicap at 1 1/8-miles on August 7 at Saratoga). He took a big step forward today."

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
