Cork and Wexford tips: Thunder Kiss can strike again in Munster Oaks

There is a terrific card Wednesday evening in Cork, where the Group 3 Munster Oaks is the feature and the listed Munster Sprint Stakes and Cork Derby form part of the supporting card. Thunder Kiss won the feature race in 2021 and can successfully defend her crown.
Trained by Ger Lyons, who has won two of the last three runnings of the race, the grey made the perfect start to her season when running away with a listed race over this course and distance. The ground was much softer then than it will be Wednesday, but there has been enough rain around recently to ensure it won’t be too fast for her.
