YTD Total: not worth mentioning something like -35 units after yesterday
Aptly named race for today because the weather forcast is not good, you may need a boat if those t-storms are as bad as predicted, hoping for the best though.
If I have a bad day today, may hang it up for awhile. Just don't have any luck right now and I've about broke my bank anyway.
Played these for Sunday:
Match-Ups
10.00 units Tony Stewart (-125) over Jeff Gordon (@thegreek)
If I'm going down, I'm going out big, this is my biggest play so far in 2008.
Smoke has not finished worse than 2nd here in 3 years, hasn't finished outside the Top 10 on a road course in 6 races(Infineon '06).
Stewart has beaten Gordon heads-up 6 straight races at Watkins Glen(2002-2007)
5.00 units Elliott Sadler (-115) over Martin Truex Jr. (@5dimes)
Sadler is a consistent Top 15 on road courses, if he keeps his nose clean and with good pit strategy he could be Top 10 today. That should place him ahead of Truex. Very good in both practice sessions Saturday(9th and 11th).
3.00 units Patrick Carpentier (-120) over Max Papis (@thegreek)
More of a play against the 70 team than any thing else. Carpentier has a good chance at a Top 15, at least a Top 20 while Papis is driving for a team struggling to make races and has not finished Top 15 all year.
3.00 units Denny Hamlin (+120) over Kevin Harvick (@sportsbook)
Harvick is a past winner here but will take a chance on Hamlin who has ran 2nd and 10th in his two starts at WG.
Props
2.00 units Brian Vickers(-115) to finish better than 24.5 (@sportsbook)
Vickers was junk in practice yesterday but based on the year he is having he may have a shot at this number, been decent on road courses in the past.
2.00 units Juan Pablo Montoya (-110) to finish better than 9.5 (@sportsbook)
Quite simply if JPM can finish(big if) he will be Top 10
2.00 units Tony Stewart (+140) to finish Top 3 (@thegreek)
1.50 units Jimmie Johnson (+250) to finish Top 3 (@thegreek)
1.00 unit Juan Pablo Montoya (+450) to finish Top 3 (@sportsbook)
Outrights
1.00 unit Tony Stewart (+400) to win (@5dimes)
1.00 unit Jimmie Johnson (+1000) to win (@thegreek)
0.50 unit Juan Pablo Montoya (+1500) to win (@sportsbook)
Good luck to everyone.
