Sumario:We present High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) projections of the Run 2 search for new physics in hadronic final states with boosted W bosons or top quarks using razor variables. Data event yields and signal/background cross sections from the 2016 analysis are scaled to obtain the HL-LHC sensitivity for center-of-mass energy of $14~\mathrm{TeV}$ and integrated luminosity of $3~\mathrm{ab}^{-1}$. Different scenarios for systematic uncertainties are considered. The projection results are interpreted in terms of gluino pair production where each gluino decays to a top quark, an anti-top quark, and a neutralino; or to a top quark and a top squark; and direct top squark pair production where each top squark decays to a top quark and a neutralino.
