Pre-qualify plays....but raining in Chicago so not sure if they will get it in anyway....hope it clears for the race tonight.

Match-Ups (all m-u lines from 5dimes)

1.50 units Joey Logano (-130) over Greg Biffle
Staying with this horse another week....Joey has finished 6th or better in 9 of his last 10 starts in the NWS (his other finish was a 12th @ Darlington) and 6 of those were 3rd or better.
The 16 has ran well this year and has 3 wins (2 w/Biffle 1 w/Kenseth) but only one Top 5 in the last 7 races. The Gibbs teams are a notch above in this series and I',m looking for Logano in the Top 3 again and maybe even score another win.

1.50 unit David Ragan (-125) over Jason Leffler
Ragan has had his struggles in Cup this year but continues to be strong in this series 8 Top 10's in 11 starts. This is a Roush type of track so think he can do at least that good here.
Leffler had been on a roll until last week( had a string of 11 straight Top 10's broken at Daytona-finished 19th) and comes to Chicagoland a track he has struggled at in the past (best finish last 4 races was 19th).
My thinking here is Ragan around 5th or so and Leffler 12th-15th.

1.00 unit Brian Vickers (-120) over Jeff Burton
RCR got a win last week but still not sold, they have been disappointing all year. Vickers when he gets the chance has been strong driving the 32 for Braun Racing (8.2 avg in 8 starts) looked real good in practice Thursday.

1.00 unit Brad Keselowski (+125) over Kevin Harvick
Kez has been hot (3.7 avg last 7). Was not very good in practice but thats been his MO , practice so-so, qualify so-so but race great. Gotta think Tony Sr. and the guys will have him up near the front by the end of the night.


May or may not have outrights later once posted.

Good luck to everyone!
