Harry
Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 500
Martinsville Racetrack
Wednesday June 10
Harry’s 6 pack is back and in my last 3 packs I have a 14-4 against the spread record. Here are my locks for Martinsville on yet another mid-week race.
#1
-115 Ryan Blaney
-115 Kevin Harvick
Blaney had two third place finishes in Charlotte and this track is one of Harvick’s most disliked. Harvick has not led a lap here since 2016.
Blaney
#2
-125 Martin Truex
-105 Denny Hamlin
Truex has four top 5 finishes here in his last five races and that includes his victory last October. Truex dominated that day as led for over 85% of the race.
Truex
#3
-115 Clint Bowyer
-115 Jimmy Johnson
This track of late has not been good for Johnson and Bowyer has been racing better of late (2 races ago he scored a surprising 2nd place finish).
Bowyer
#4
-140 Christopher Bell
+110 Cole Custer
Bell continues to get better every week. He has two top 10’s this season. Custer has just one.
Bell
#5
Manufacturer of Winning Car
+135 Ford
+140 Toyota
+275 Chevy
With Truex, Kyle Busch, Denny Hamlin and Eric Jones I’ll take my chances with “you got it…..Toyota”.
Toyota
#6
Best Finisher
+185 John H Nemechek
+225 Bubba Wallace
+285 Ty Dillon
+285 Michael McDowell
Wallace is taking a lot of flack over his post-race interview (or lack there of). Nemechek has been running well lately but I’ll take a shot with Bubba.
