08/21/2010 - Bristol, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Busch became the first driver in NASCAR to win all three of its national touring series races on the same week after taking Saturday's IRWIN Tools Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway.
Busch, who won the Camping World Truck race and the Nationwide event at Bristol earlier this week, led a race-high 284 laps and held off David Reutimann at the finish by 0.68 seconds to claim the victory in the 500-lap Sprint Cup race here.
His victory was the third of the season and the 19th of his Cup career. He also won at Bristol for the fourth time.
Reutimann's second-place finish came one day after he suffered food poisoning.
Jamie McMurray rebounded from a pit-road mishap and speeding penalty to finish third, while Clint Bowyer and Kasey Kahne rounded out the top-five.
Jeff Gordon, who finished 11th, joined Kevin Harvick as those drivers who have clinched a spot in the 12-driver field in the championship Chase.
Jimmie Johnson started on the pole and led 175 laps before he was hit from behind by Juan Pablo Montoya and crashed into the wall. Johnson, the four-time defending series champion, finished 35th and fell four spots to ninth in the point standings.
Just two races remain before the Chase begins next month at New Hampshire.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.
Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.
According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).
Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.
''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.
Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.
''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''
Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.
”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
