With a road course on tap all eyes turn to A.J. Allmendinger, as he has been one of the best in the series on these types of tracks and won there in an IndyCar before making a shift to NASCAR.
Kevin Harvick has also been in good form with two top-fives from the last three races and has also won multiple races at this track.

Matt DiBenedetto earned his third top-10 of the year last week, and although this will be his first Texas start in Trucks, his best Cup Series finish at the track was third in 2021.
Kyle Larson is a favorite this week given how good he was at the track last season, including a win in the fall race.
John Hunter Nemechek finally got his 2022 win last week at Darlington, and now that the seal has been broken, more wins should follow.
