The Indy 500 odds<\/a> are just days away, so we better fire off some picks at IndyCar<\/span>-like speed! Here are a few names to target at your <\/span><\/font>US<\/st1:place><\/st1:country-region> friendly sportsbook this weekend.<\/p>\n

Scott Dixon
<\/span><\/b>Indy 500 betting line: +350<\/p>\n

Pretty<\/span> tough to go against Dixon<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>. Not only is he the reigning Indy 500 odds<\/a> winner, he hasn’t finished worse than sixth over his last three trips to the Brickyard. His IndyCar<\/span> season hasn’t gone particularly well but at win at Kansas<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> leading up to the big race gives him momentum. If safe plays are your thing in betting sports, Dixon<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> is your man.<\/p>\n

Helio<\/span><\/b><\/span> Castroneves<\/span>
<\/span><\/b>Indy 500 betting line: +500<\/p>\n

Yes, yes, we know. We can’t mention Helio<\/span> anymore without discussing his Dancing With<\/span> the Stars <\/span><\/i>prowess. But the truth is that he also deserves respect as a fantastic (and, in fact, our favorite) Indy 500 odds pick this weekend. The two-time winner at the Brickyard (2001, 2002) placed second behind Dixon<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> at Kansas<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> and should race with passion after escaping jail time in his tax evasion case. He’s as good a pick as Dixon<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> and offers better sportsbook value.<\/p>\n

Danica<\/span><\/b><\/span> Patrick
<\/span><\/b>Indy 500 betting line: +800<\/o:p><\/p>\n

What’s that? No Dario Franchitti<\/span>? Calm down. We know he’s a good pick too, but it just feels right to discuss Danica<\/span> here (and not <\/span><\/i>just because of her sexy Go<\/span> Daddy.com commercial! OK, well, maybe slightly because of that). Even though she doesn’t have an Indy 500 odds<\/a> win under her belt like the aforementioned racers, she’s due. She has two fourth-place finishes and an eighth at the Brickyard plus two top-five finishes this IndyCar<\/span> season. If you like your sportsbook underdogs, there’s a good chance that Danica’s<\/span> time to make history is now.<\/o:p><\/span><\/font><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
