ELLIOTT (+185) is the chalk for Sundays race, as he has victories in each of the past two installments. He has four career Cup Series starts at the track, and he has never finished lower than 13th. He also has ticked off 141 laps led in his career with a 7.0 Average-Finish Position (AFP).

ERIK JONES (+10000) has never won at this track, but he has come very close. In three career Cup starts he has finished fourth, fifth and 10th, which is good for a 6.33 AFP, best among all active drivers with at least three starts at Watkins Glen.

Even though Chevrolet has been the dominant manufacturer in recent seasons, KYLE BUSCH (+750) cannot be overlooked. He has the two wins, six top-5 finishes and 12 top-10 showings in 15 Cup starts while leading all active drivers with 247 laps led. His 9.5 AFP is also best among all Cup drivers with at least five starts at the track.

If youre looking to invest in a big-time long-shot, look no further than DANIEL SUAREZ (+7000). He has been a quick learner at The Glen, registering finishes of third, fourth and 17th in his three Cup Series starts while leading 14 laps.

He has also started 14.7 on average, but improved to an 8.0 AFP. He might not be a great play for the outright win, but he is still a value play as a TOP 10 FINISHER (+330).

Veteran RYAN NEWMAN (+30000) is also worth a roll of the dice at the road course. His 18 Cup starts here are second-most among all active drivers behind Harvick (19). He has a runner-up finish, three top-10s and 11 top-20 showings while posting an 18.3 AFP.
