Best Bets: 2025 AMA Pro Motocross Championship Hangtown Classic Pre-Event Odds Analysis

Best Bets & Odds for Motocross Hangtown Classic

Odds for the Event Winner

The 2023 Motocross Champion Jett Lawrence is the rider to beat coming into the Hangtown Classic, after a flawless start to his campaign at Fox Raceway. Lawrence won Moto #1 and #2 on opening day to take an early 10-point lead in the Championship. He struggled at the Prairie City SVRA on his last visit, carding a 24th and sixth place return to leave him 12th overall. He’ll want to channel his 2023 performance from this circuit, where he snatched both races and the event.

Expert Pick

The class, skill, and motivation of Jett Lawrence to get up and win two races fresh off an ACL injury are impossible to ignore. He is a special rider and earns our expert pick for this weekend at -206, potentially paying $29.71 on a $20 bet.

Odds for a Podium

Bettors are confident that the event favorite, Jett Lawrence, will finish on the podium this weekend, followed by Eli Tomac, who entered Victory Lane in Moto #2 in his last appearance at this track in 2022. Hunter Lawrence closed out the 2024 Hangtown Classic in second place, finishing second and fourth in his two starts.

Aaron Plessinger starts with short odds for a podium after securing the honor last year. “The Cowboy” ended the previous edition in third overall, after a top five and a podium in the two races. He produced a similar record in the MX season opener in Pala. Justin Cooper and Jason Anderson line up with positive odds for a podium. Cooper finished fourth overall at this track last year, followed by Anderson. The duo enters fresh off a podium and a top-five ride in the first two races this campaign.

H2H Odds

Kawasaki rider, Jason Anderson, offers the best value for money in the Hangtown Classic head-to-head odds. He takes on Jorge Prado who was a consistent top 10 performer in the first round, but failed to crack a top five result. Anderson delivered a fifth-place performance in Moto #2 last weekend, and earned a podium and a top five on his previous visit to this venue.
