Eight previous winners at New Hampshire Motor Speedway will try to add another victory to their resumes when the 2023 Crayon 301 takes place on Monday after Sunday's race was washed out. Kevin Harvick, who plans to retire at the end of the season, has recorded four victories at the track, while Denny Hamlin, Ryan Newman and Kyle Busch have registered three. Brad Keselowski and reigning series champion Joey Logano have won twice at New Hampshire, while Aric Almirola and Christopher Bell each captured one checkered flag. Bell is the +500 favorite in the 2023 Crayon 301 odds from Caesars Sportsbook. Martin Truex Jr. and Hamlin, who is a two-time winner of this event, are +650 in the 2023 NASCAR at New Hampshire starting lineup. Kyle Larson is +800, while William Byron and Busch, who also won this race twice, round out the top 2023 New Hampshire NASCAR contenders at +1000.
The Crayon 301 2023 is scheduled to begin at 12 p.m. ET. You'll want to check out the NASCAR at New Hampshire predictions from Micah Roberts, the legendary Vegas bookmaker who pioneered wagering on racing, before locking in any 2023 Crayon 301 picks of your own.
Roberts was the first to offer expanded NASCAR betting and now hands out NASCAR winners to his followers on SportsLine. Roberts is the nation's premier NASCAR betting expert, and his top pick, Ross Chastain, won the Ally 400 last month at +1000. He also predicted Larson's win at +650 in the NASCAR All-Star Race in May and nailed the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix winner in March by hitting Tyler Reddick's victory at +1000.
In addition, the expert correctly predicted Chase Elliott to win the YellaWood 500 at +1200 last October and the Jockey Made in America 250 in 2021, nailed the 2021 Coca-Cola 600 winner by hitting Larson's victory at +550 and was on point by targeting Elliott as the winner of the EchoPark Texas Grand Prix at +160 the previous week. Anyone who has followed his picks has cashed ticket after ticket.
Now, Roberts has analyzed the field and odds for Monday's NASCAR at New Hampshire 2023 race. He's only sharing his winner and leaderboard right here.
2023 Crayon 301 expert picks
One shocker: Roberts is fading Kyle Larson, even though he is one of the 2023 NASCAR at New Hampshire favorites at +800. In fact, Roberts says Larson, who has been runner-up three times and posted three other top-10 finishes in 12 career Cup Series starts at New Hampshire, doesn't even crack the top 10.
"Larson has averaged a 12th-place finish in 12 starts at NHMS with four top-fives," Roberts told SportsLine. "But all those top-fives came with Chip Ganassi Racing." You can see who else to fade here.
Another curveball: Roberts is high on Brad Keselowski, even though he's a +2000 longshot in the latest 2023 Crayon 301 odds. The 39-year-old Michigan native is coming off his seventh top-10 of the season after he finished sixth at Atlanta last week. Keselowski has enjoyed plenty of success at New Hampshire in his career, posting four victories, 17 top fives and 25 top-10s in 32 starts across the Cup and Xfinity Series. He was 10th or better in each of his last four Cup Series races at the track.
"He's second among active drivers with a 10th-place average finish in 22 Cup Series starts (at New Hampshire), with two wins and nine top-fives," Roberts told SportsLine. "He also has won two Xfinity Series races on the track." You can see who else to back here.
How to make 2023 Crayon 301 predictions
Roberts is high on a longshot who already has a career-defining win at New Hampshire. This driver is being underestimated by oddsmakers, and anyone who backs him could hit it big. You can only see who it is here.
