Dwaine Tips History

Strong home record against Finn Harps dating back to 2009, Limerick have won their last two home games and have built up some momentum as they pull away from the relegation zone. Harps lack a goalscorer and they are in big trouble right now and a tough Limerick side should grind them down again for the home win.

Finn Harps have a really bad record away to Limerick and the latest match there was a 1-0 Cup defeat last weekend. Limerick have won their last two home games 1-0 and Harps have lost their last three matches in the league and haven't been creating or scoring goals. Limerick should win this but at best Finn Harps might get a point.

Three league wins in a row winning to nil for Cobh has them second in the league now. Athlone are bottom and have conceded fourteen in the last two. Cobh in form and can win away from home to rock bottom Athlone Town.

Athlone haven't won in the league for four months now and with Cobh Ramblers winning the last three matches including a good win away to Shels I can see them going to Athlone tonight and not being beaten. Cobh Ramblers or the Draw.

Before the cup win at Waterford last month Shels hadn't beaten Waterford in six and with the home side tonight top of the league and their home form in the first division very good I can only see Waterford getting payback and beating Shels. Double chance the draw to cover Shels containing them again.

Winner at Galway on the 5th of August and looked really impressive. Same weight and distance, this Down Royal should bring an equally dominant run from True Self to notch up back to back wins for Willie Mullins.

Second in Sligo ten days ago, the Noel Meade trained Bronco Bill looked good that day and is now blinkered so plenty of confidence about an improved display to land this Down Royal handicap hurdle.

Won off the same weight at Cork two races ago, Sean Flanagan is on board for Colin Kidd with Rashaan looking for his fifth win of 2017. Should be stay the three mile which many believe he will then the favourite is the worthy market leader.

Bumper winner, Joseph O'Brien trained and Ruby Walsh on board this evening in Down Royal. Third in Tipperary less than 2 weeks ago the 2m 4f return should be perfect for Thermistocles to land again.

Needed the run out ten days ago at Sligo for the first outing under new trainer Fahy. Drop to 2m and a little weight off David Mullins can give Paddy's Orient a good push at Down Royal today.

A winner of 2m 4f at Kilbeggan on the 21st of July, Court Artist is off the same weight and with Ruby Walsh on board, the favourite is very much the one to beat in this maiden hurdle.

2nd and 1st the last two runs at Ballinrobe, Thomas O'Malley should jump better today and with Davy Russell on board he can land the opener at Down Royal for Joseph O'Brien.
