YTD: +10.75 units
Going downhill fast. Lost 20+ units last few races. Pretty tight match-ups for tonight. Played these lightly.
Match-Ups
3.00 units Paul Menard(+115) over Bobby Labonte (5dimes)
Statistically this is one of Menard's best tracks, if not the best. Last three races he has finishes of 8th, 4th and 2nd. Has a brand new chassis for this race tested at Iowa a few weeks ago.
The only reason this is not a bigger wager for me is the fact that Labonte has 8 Top 10's in 10 Busch starts at Richmond.
3.00 units Clint Bowyer(-125) over Ryan Newman(thegreek)
Bowyer's performance in the Busch Series in '07 warrants this play. 13 Top 10's last 14 races(9 Top 5's & 2 wins-including Richmond in the spring). He's driving chassis # 069 which in three starts in '07 has both of those wins.
Outrights
0.50 unit Greg Biffle (+2000) the greek
Does not have a win at Richmond but in 12 starts has 8 Top 10's and has not finished outside the Top 10 in 6 races and that was an 11th place finish in '04.
He's drivng chassis RK-460 which has two starts in '07 a 6th at Richmond in the spring and a 2nd at ORP in which he led the most laps.
0.50 unit Jason Leffler(+2000) thegreek
This guy has been tough on the smaller tracks. On speedways 1 mile and under(the last 6 starts) he has finished no worse than 12th and has 4 Top 5's. He's driving chassis #36 which he raced at Gateway and finished 4th
0.25 unit Paul Menard(+7500) thegreek
see reasons above
Good luck and enjoy the race!
