The short-track portion of the 2024 NASCAR Cup Series schedule continues on Sunday with a trip to Martinsville Speedway for the 2024 Cook Out 400 at 3 p.m. ET. The "paperclip" has been on the NASCAR schedule since 1949, so it is a historic race that drivers in the Cup Series are eager to win. Denny Hamlin has already achieved that feat five times and is coming off a win at Richmond, but his last Martinsville victory came almost nine years ago. He is the 9-2 favorite in the 2024 Cook Out 400 odds, sitting ahead of Martin Truex Jr. (13-2) and Ryan Blaney (7-1) among the 2024 NASCAR at Martinsville contenders.
Truex led 228 laps at Richmond last week and led 47 laps here last fall after finishing third in the spring race. Is he a driver you should target with your 2024 Cook Out 400 predictions? Before making any Cook Out 400 picks or predictions, you need to see what elite expert auto racing handicappers Phil Bobbitt and Steve Greco have to say.
Bobbitt and Greco built a predictive engine that consistently beats the books. They find huge value and aren't afraid of volume. Over the past three years, their followers are up more than $25,800 on $100 plays.

The duo began 2024 by calling Hamlin to win the Clash at the Coliseum at +1100 and hit on three of its four top-five wagers. Three weeks later at Atlanta, they predicted Daniel Suarez's victory at +3500 and were 10-2 on matchup plays. They went 9-3 on head-to-head plays last week in the Toyota Owners 400, going +13.58 units in that article alone. Anyone following Bobbitt and Greco has seen huge returns.

2024 Cook Out 400 expert picks
One of Bobbitt and Greco's top NASCAR bets: They are backing Tyler Reddick to finish in the top 10, one of the NASCAR props that returns +120. Martinsville has not been kind to Reddick during his career, as he only has one top-10 finish in eight races at this track. However, he has four top-10 finishes in his last five races this season, including a tenth-place finish at Richmond last week.
Reddick has been able to post those quality results despite an average starting position of 14.7 over his last six races, leading 74 laps during that stretch. He has also been improving on short tracks since moving from Richard Childress Racing to 23XI Racing. His average running position at Martinsville, Richmond and Phoenix improved from 19.4 in 2022 to 12.0 in 2023 and 8.9 in 2024, so Bobbitt and Greco like his chances of finishing in the top 10 again this week.
