Odds Say Elimination Beckons For Niamh & Paudie

Katelyn Cummins’ momentum on Dancing with the Stars is showing no sign of slowing, with the Rose of Tralee champion now leading the betting to lift this year’s glitterball trophy.

The Laois Rose has been cut into 6/4 from 2/1 by BOYLE Sports after delivering another confident display last weekend. Her 28-point build on her opening score of 31 has cemented her status as one of the standout performers of the competition, according to Irish punters.

Her rise up the market sees her jump ahead of Ireland AM presenter and TikTok favourite Eric Roberts (7/4), while 6/1 shots Tolu Makay and Philip Doyle have also tightened their claims after catching the eye on the leaderboard.

 Lawrence Lyons, spokesperson for BOYLE Sports, said:

“Katelyn is really hitting her stride, and Irish punters have been quick to get behind her. The support flooding in this week has pushed her to the top of the betting, and right now she looks the contestant everyone has to catch.”

The pressure is now mounting on outsiders Niamh Kavanagh and Paudie Moloney, according to the latest odds, who both find themselves among the most vulnerable to follow in the footsteps of ousted comedian Michael Fry.
