Hennessey can’t be stopped, wins 6 more

Persistent Bettor (Jody Jamieson) made a first-over move to try to get to Landry Seelster. Landry Seelster shook her off and led to three-quarters in 1:22.2.

Talk Show Chica (Corey Braden) popped the pocket and gave her best effort but had to settle for second as Landry Seelster coasted to a lifetime best of 1:51.3. Persistent Bettor held on for third.
