Doherty powers through to final

KEN DOHERTY marched into his second successive PowerHouse UK Snooker Championship final in York last night.

But battling Scot Drew Henry made the former world champion work hard for his 9-5 win in the opening semi-final of the 960,000 event.

Doherty, who will play world champion Peter Ebdon or 1999 UK title holder Mark Williams in tomorow's best of 19 frames final, resumed the session with a 6-2 lead.
