Vineeth Tips History

Two handicap chase wins this season including over C&D off 6lb lower on soft going under Barry. Jockey won this race for last 2 years and overall won 3 times.

Disappointing efforts last twice including on handicap debut. Two solid course runs last year in 2m & 2m4f maidens. Nice opportunity awaits return to this track after 12 months. Debutant jockey Morgan (4) could kick-off his career on winning note. Trainer won this race in 2013.

Since 2009 3yo's won 62.50% of this handicap. 2013 winning team of Bolger and Cleary will partner 3yo Slaney Street who made credible 1.5l 3rd of 20 over C&D 6 days ago. SS carries same weight 8-7 and same draw 11 like his stablemate Teocht 4 years ago.

Two solid runner-up finishes by neck and short head in 8-9f Listed. This will be her first run over 7f in 2017. Last year she was back to back distance winner including Killavullan Group 3 (C&D).

Since 2012 80% of winners of this nursery were favourites and 50% of them were ridden by Shane Foley. The dual winning jock will partner Drombeg Dream who won readily under him a fortnight ago. Last 3 winners had ratings 80+ and here DD is the top weight with 86.

3yo filly will make her seasonal/Irish debut under Halford. She won her last outing for Haggas which was 10f maiden. She's sister to Irish winners Circumstances (C&D) and Urban Moon.

5yo gelding won twice over C&D earlier this season. LTO he finished under 2l 7th of 14 in 12f handicap at Dundalk. He shows consistent C&D form 43-11 in 14-runner fields.

2nd by neck over C&D in last course visit was 4yo's best effort at Dundalk. This will be his first race in Ireland after 7 months break.

Last week 12.0 Bohemians stunned Dundalk by 1-0 (44'). This month their all 3 matches had totals under 1.5. Other than 3-2 win over Pats, Bohemians scored under 1.5 goals at Dalymount since July.

No win in last 5 rounds for the new champions of Ireland Cork City. Bray scored 2.5x more goals than Cork in last 5 rounds. Bray scored not more than 1 goal/match at Turners Cross since their rare 3-1 win in 2013. As hosts Cork did not failed to score against Bray in last 9 years.

Do or die match for Galway as they host former champs Dundalk in the season finale. They are unbeaten in last 5 rounds scoring average of 2.2 goals/match which is 1.57x more than Dundalk. Galway likely to bow out unbeaten in 6-goal thriler.

This is crucial match for Sligo who need only a draw to secure their season ticket in the top flight. They face incumbent Drogheda who had consolation win over fellow relegated side Finn. Since 3-0 win over Dundalk 12 months ago, Sligo scored not more than 2 goals/match on road.

Limerick scored not more than 1 goal/match at Tallaght in last 11 years. This season they conceded minimum 3 goals/match in 6 of 7 away losses.

Derry aims for their first win against Patricks at Brandywell in 5 years. The visitors did not failed to score in last 5 visits here. This season Patricks conceded total of 9 goals in last 2 away losses. Derry scored minimum 2 goals in last 5 home wins and scored over 2.5 in 80% of those wins.

5yo's sole win under rules came 2 years ago on course debut over C&D. Since he finished here 44476 over 6-7f in minimum 12-runner fields. Now 8lb lower in his only second attempt over C&D. No headgear.

Last year's winner was a 3yo and in this field Weld trained filly has top form over distance and going. She should win this readily.

Two solid runs this month. 3yo filly's penultimate 2nd at Gowran was richly rewarded with quick win at Cork over 1m. Both runs on soft to heavy and heavy goings. She has very chance to remain unbeaten as all 4 winners of this handicap were 3yos (50% fillies).

In last 30 days 3yo scored twice in 5f & 6f handicaps on soft and soft to heavy goings. Latest was at this course over 6f in which he beat Doonard and Nora. He should complete hat-trick comfortably.

3yo is yet to win on turf but been making place money. He should improve on latest 7th of 22 in valuable Sprint handicap. He has good exposure on soft to heavy going. Visor dropped and no headgear. Enjoys 2-0 record against veteran Maarek.

Relegated sides Finn and Drogheda will play their second last match in the Premier Division. Both are winless especially Drogheda who are 0-20 in top flight. H2H at Ballybofey, Harps never beat Drogheda since '99. But that doesn't mean visitors would produce surprise win. We could expect 2-2 tie in this dead rubber.
