Bet on the Drivin’ for Linemen 200
Christopher Bell is having the best season in the Truck series. In seven races, he has two wins and a total of five top-5 finishes. He also is the defending champion of this race, which was the second of his career. I like Bell to push to be a repeat champion tonight.
Johnny Sauter has finished in the top 5 of this race the last three years and he also is having a very solid 2017 season. Sauter has one win and three runner-up finishes this year. He has placed eighth or better in his last six races. He should be right in the mix with Bell today.
Ben Rhodes is listed with +900 odds to win tonight, but I think he is a nice dark horse option. He was runner-up at this track a year ago, his best finish ever in his Truck Series career. He also is coming off back-to-back top-5 finishes, so he has some momentum building in his young career. I think he will continue to build on that tonight and possibly pick up the upset win.
