Martin Truex Jr., who won the Quaker Sate 400 in both 2017 and 2018, is the 7-2 favorite to make it a trifecta when the race takes place Saturday night in Kentucky.

Truex Jr., who is tied for the most wins this season on the NASCAR circuit with four, is looking for his third win in Kentucky which would tie him with Brad Keselowski, who won the race is 2012, 2014 and 2016. 

Keselowski is the fourth betting choice at 8-1. 

Kyle Busch, Truex Jr.’s Toyota racing partner and tied with him with four wins on the season, is the second choice at 5-1, the same odds as Kevin Harvick, who is looking for his first win of the season. 

Keselowski and the circuit’s current points leader Joey Logano are next at 8-1 each.

Here’s a betting tip: Toyota has won three of the past four races here and five of the eight races overall. That bodes well for Truex Jr. and Busch, as well as Denny Hamlin.
