Cool Survivor 1995 Irish Oaks Champion

For many decades, Michael Fortune was the voice of Greyhound Racing, and our commentator here in Shelbourne Park. One of the most memorable nights he ever experienced in Shelbourne Park was no doubt the night of his big win as co-owner of Cool Survivor when she won the 1995 Sporting Press Irish Oaks Final. 

Take a look back at her win below.
