Eoghan.
I think Daniel will get further than what most people expect though.

Ruth. A lot of people are ruling her out, and saying she has a small fanbase, but I know a lot of people supporting her, and a lot of gay guys/women really love her (me included).

Ruth. I wouldn't say Rachel and Eoghan are dark horses, they're already favourites.

Ruth, Rachel isn't a dark horse really, she is a brilliant singer.

I'd like to say Ruth, but I think Daniel's probably the dark horse, as people forget that it's not just young people who watch and vote in the X Factor.

Probably Ruth. She'll either be out in the next few weeks or still there in the last few weeks. She's got the talent and emotionally she puts everything into each performance so she could be around for quite a while.

Ruth can only be the 'dark horse' if people pick up the phone and vote for her...............otherwise sympathy votes for other acts will overwhelm her, like last week. However GOOD a singer she is..................feels like I'm supporting the total underdog here, but support on polls is growing......

I think it was just complacency got her in the bottom last week, she seems to have a lot of fans, on here anyway. And purple rain will have done her big favour
