Hennessy dominates the opening round of Cork Oaks

Paul Hennessy dominated Saturday night’s opening round of the Cork Oaks, taking three of the four heats.

The trainer’s treble was instigated by Shes A Tornado, who looked ideally housed on the rails in heat two.

The bitch broke best of all and was comfortably clear racing to the turn. Sent off the 4-7 favourite, she asserted her superiority down the back, racing clear to set up a five and a half lengths victory in 28.83.
