Henrietta delights the O'Neills
Ronnie O'Neill's Henrietta's Way was the final nail in the coffin for punters at Clonmel as the 25/1 shot under the trainer's daughter Debbie made all in the www.Grahamnorris.com Memorial Flat Race. Glibin was the money horse here (7/2 into 5/2) but herself and the favourite For Dylan couldn't cope with Henrietta's Way returning off a 588 day break. The victorious daughter of Stowaway, who the O'Neill’s also stand, kept going well up the straight to score by four lengths.
Debbie, rode a winner previously at Thurles in 2002 before being on the sidelines for a year after breaking her back.
The O'Neills from Kilkenny also ran the better fancied Loch Garbh (also by Stowaway and bred by themselves 8/1 into 7/1) here but he had to settle for fourth under Debbie's brother John.
