Brad Keselowski

Nascar---News-Banners-250x130-2-12-16

Brad Keselowski is being underrated in the upcoming Kobalt 400 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. He’s +1,000 to win his first race of the year despite very solid outings this season. He recently placed ninth at Atlanta. He will be a solid pick this time around at Las Vegas. Keselowski won this race in 2014. He’s due for another big race considering he’s an elite driver at intermediate tracks.

Keselowski has finished in the top 10 in his last 16 races at intermediate tracks, including a seventh-place finish at Las Vegas in March 2015. He has two top three finishes in his last three races at the surface.

Carl Edwards

2016 Kobalt 400 Sleeper Picks and Predictions

Carl Edwards is a sentimental sleeper for this race. He’s +1,000 to win the Kobalt 400 this year. It’s not too far-fetched for Edwards win it all. He’s been pretty good at Las Vegas with four top five finishes in his last five starts at the track. He’s also won at the track two times in his career.

Edwards is a strong driver when it comes to intermediate tracks. He has 12 wins, 50 top fives and 77 top 10s in 131 career starts. Expect him to be in the running for a win at Las Vegas this Sunday.

Denny Hamlin

Denny Hamlin is being underrated in this race. He won the Daytona 500 two weeks ago. He followed that up with a 16th-place finish at Atlanta last week. Hamlin has been very good at Las Vegas in his career. He’s finished in the top five twice and five times in the top 10 in 10 career starts.

Hamlin may be a steal at +1,200 to win the Kobalt 400.
