William Byron (+700)
Byron is on a high at the moment following a win at the 2023 Goodyear 400 at Darlington Raceway last Sunday. That’s already this third victory of the season, as he had also won the 2023 Pennzoil 400 presented by Jiffy Lube and the 2023 United Rentals Work United 500 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and at Phoenix Raceway, respectively.
Kevin Harvick (+700)
The veteran Stewart-Haas driver is winless thus far this year, but he’s got four top 5s and six top 10s. He is also coming off a runner-up finish at the 2023 Goodyear 400.
SLEEPERS
Martin Truex Jr (+1000)
Here’s what we have to say about Truex in our 2023 NASCAR All-Star Race sleepers piece:
The Joe Gibbs Racing driver is currently sixth in the standings with 385 points. Truex has been pretty solid of late, as he’s got three top 10s in his last five starts.

Since February 2020, Truex has three wins in 17 races on short-course tracks.

Like Blaney, Keselowski has done fine of late despite missing a win. He is winless this season, but has finished fifth at the GEICO 500 and eighth at the Würth 400. He now has 303 points,m good for 13th this season. In 26 career starts at Kansas Speedway, Keselowski has collected two wins and seven top 5s to go with 13 top 10s. He has a career average finish of 12.1 at Kansas Speedway.
