Fantasy Racing Cheat Sheet
Kurt Busch
Brad Keselowski
Tony Stewart
Jeff Gordon
Carl Edwards
Jeff Gutowski of Fantasy Racing Cheat Sheet sees Kurt Busch (+1,200) as the best pick among his top-5 list of contenders for this Sunday’s race. The main reason for that pick is the fact that Busch came out triumphant in the earlier race at the Pocono Raceway. But besides that, his familiarity of the track also makes him such a sensible pick. Busch has put himself within the top-5 in four of the last five races at Pocono. It would be really surprising if he is unable to continue his success there.

Matt Kenseth
Kyle Busch
Carl Edwards
Denny Hamlin
Chad Robb of Race Review Online produced his own list of contenders with the topmost name being Matt Kenseth (+800). Robb points out that Kenseth has been this season’s best driver on the flat tracks, and his outstanding average running position (5.54) in the previous three flat-track races could attest to that.
Also, Kenseth has three-consecutive finishes in the top-10 at Pocono, which included a win in this particular race last year. He should experience barely any trouble in maneuvering through the tracks of the Tricky Triangle.

Kevin Harvick
As for us here at TopBet, we’re going to with a dark horse in the form of Kevin Harvick (+600). He’s only gotten one win this season, but still sits atop of the Sprint Cup Series driver standings. You can thank his series-leading 16 top-10 finishes, seven of which have come from his previous eight races, for that. And given his current form, Harvick should be able have another remarkable run at Pocono this week.
