10/18/2007 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The seven thoroughbreds trained by suspended conditioner Patrick Biancone that have been pre-entered for this year's Breeders' Cup races have been transferred to Francois Parisel. The transfer request was made Thursday to Breeders' Cup Senior V.P. of Operations, Pamela Blatz-Murff.
As part of an agreement with the Kentucky Horse Racing Authority, Biancone is to serve a six-month suspension beginning November 1. He will be unable to apply for a trainer's license for an additional six months. Biancone is being disciplined for the possession of cobra venom, a prohibited substance.
The horses that will run in next week's Breeders' Cup races at Monmouth Park will not bear Biancone's name as trainer.
Parisel has been a long-time assistant for Biancone and a private trainer at Buckram Oak Farm. He also ran a string of horses for trainer Niall O'Callaghan at Churchill Downs.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:
Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)
Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line)
