Expert | Confident in
SportsLine | Kyle Busch

Kyle Busch, who is +1100 to win the Pala Casino 400 this weekend, is being looked closely by Mike McClure of SportsLine. Busch has four wins in nine starts at Auto Club Speedway, so it’s not really a surprising pick.

Expert | Top driver to watch out for
Jeff Gluck | Kyle Busch
Jordan Bianchi | Kyle Larson

Gluck thinks that Busch is “very hungry,” while Bianchi is going with the race’s defending champ, Larson.

“It’s hard not to overthink, especially with all the unknowns. So let’s keep this simple and go with the driver who’s the defending race winner, who excels on this type of track. The pick is Larson.”

Blackwell is liking the chances of Larson to top the field again down in Fontana. Larson started second and finished 18th last week at the Daytona 500.

Here’s what TopBet’s Ryan Simpson said about Chase Elliott in our preview of the 2023 Pala Casino 400 race:

“Elliott did not have a very good race last Sunday, and he will look to be much better this coming Sunday. An accident took out Elliott at the Daytona 500, so he will be so eager to come away with a stronger performance at the Auto Club Speedway, where he has five top 10s in six career starts there. His best finish on that track was fourth during the 2020 Auto Club Speedway.”
