If you're looking for a low-tier sleeper to take a shot on in this weekend's Cook Out 400, John Hunter Nemechek may be your guy. Richmond is a 0.75-mile short, flat track, and when you look at the comparable tracks from this season, JHN hasn't been half bad. He finished 14th at Phoenix (after starting 36th), finished second in his All Star Open race at North Wilkesboro, and then came home fourth in the Last Chance Race at Bowman Gray. Additionally, Nemechek ended up 15th at Iowa earlier this month. Now, as far as his track record here at Richmond specifically, it isn't very good (with no finish better than 25th), but it appears as though this No. 42 team is consistently finding speed at flat track this year. Nemechek qualified 34th for Saturday night's race at Richmond, making him an attractive Place Differential option in DFS that could go under the radar. Considering using John Hunter Nemechek ($6,200 on DraftKings) in tournament-style lineups.--Jordan McAbee
