Circuit of the Americas put on fun races for the Truck Series and Xfinity Series on Saturday. Now it’s the Cup Series turn with the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix. We saw cars on track for practice and qualifying and we’ll certainly take what we saw with that to make some picks on Prize Picks for today’s race. The pole-sitter is Ryan Blaney but there were some other drivers in some interesting starting spots as well. Let’s take a look at some of the prop lines at Prize Picks and start making our board of picks.

Alex Bowman OVER 28.5 Fantasy Points

Is this a gimme on the slate? Bowman is starting P5 and ran P3 in practice and has four top-10s in the last seven road races. How good is this line? He can drop back to P10 and still hit the over. That’s tasty right off the bat.

Ross Chastain OVER 7.5 Cars Passed

The next tasty prop we’re liking? Chastain passing people. What gives us the impression he’s going to stop passing folks just because he’s starting P16? He started P20 here last year and finished P4. That was part of his three-straight top-seven finishes at road races and he comes in having finished P3 or better three-straight races too. Starting P16 means finishing P8 or better hits and that’s in his wheelhouse, or should I say Trackhouse…

Brad Keselowski UNDER 32.5 Fantasy Points

It’s been a rough week, scratch that, season for Keselowski. The move to RFK racing hasn’t gone smoothly and this week he and his teammate got hammered with a penalty. What did they do to backup the penalty for messing with parts? They failed tech a few times and lost another crew member. Down a Crew Chief, Car Chief, and with a slow car, don’t expect much from Keselowski. If he finishes P19 or worse, we hit and he ran P28 in practice, when not spinning out.

A.J. Allmendinger OVER 9.5 Cars Passed

Allmendinger and road racing are like Peanut Butter and Jelly. They just go together. He won the Xfinity race on Saturday and won a road race in the Cup series last year. Now, he’s in a speedy Cup car that’s designed for road racing and has a mid-pack starting spot? Check please! If he finishes in the top-10, he hits, that simple. Allmendinger has run five of the last seven road races in the Cup series and finished top-10 three times, or 60-percent of the time.

Chase Elliott UNDER 12.5 Laps Led

It’s not the same Elliott this year. Yes, he’s been great at road courses in his career. In fact, it’s been the only thing buoying his wins total over the last year and change. That’s not necessarily the case this weekend though. The 9-car team hasn’t been all that fast this year in general and hasn’t really had the speed to lead laps. Now we’re expecting him to go out and lead nearly 20-percent of the race? Starting from 12th? With a slower practice speed? Yeah, we’ll take the under here.

Kyle Busch OVER 9.5 Cars Passed

Did you realize that over the last 14, non-Roval road races, that Busch has the best average finish, average run position, Driver Rating, top-fives, and top-10s in the field? He was one pit stop away from winning this race last year and has a history of moving up well at road races. He’s starting P15 and ran the fastest lap at practice. Finishing top-five means we hit.

Erik Jones UNDER 36.5 Fantasy Points

But wait, I hear you saying, isn’t Jones in your playbook for DFS? Yes, he is. That’s a different thing though. He can finish P19 or P20 and get us a good day in DFS starting P30. However, he hits the under here if he finishes P19 with 36 points posted. So while we like him in DFS, this is still an UNDER bet for a guy that’s likely to simply pick up a handful of spots but not finish top-18.
