Best Bets: Indy 500
When it comes to this race, it is hard to bet against someone who has never finished outside of the top 10 in five starts at Indianapolis. A.J. Foyt Racing"e;s Santino Ferrucci nearly won the Indy 500 a year ago, leading a few late laps before finishing in third. The Connecticut native did suffer from a few issues throughout this month"e;s practice sessions, but a sixth-place starting position should give bettors confidence for a top 5 finish, given that Ferrucci has improved on his starting position in each start of his career at IMS.
