2024 Enjoy Illinois 300 Prop Bet of the Week
Ryan Blaney: Top-5 Finish (-118)
The racer in the forefront of my mind anytime weโre talking short flat tracks is Ryan Blaney. Due in part to Gateway, which is where the NASCAR Cup Series race is taking place this week.
There are a lot of similarities between this track and Martinsville, and I see it racing similarly, where track position and speed are key. In the past five races at Martinsville, Ryan Blaney has four T5 finishes, and in the one where he didnโt crack the T5, he finished P7.
He started on the front row and ran great here at this track last year, ticking off a ton of laps while running in the top five. I anticipate Blaney to be strong again Sunday.
