There was a high-quality last eight emerging from the qualifying stages, but Dodd came good with some high-quality play required to see off Ogier, who seems to get better with age.
Things may have been different had Ogier taken the first, but from 4-8 down Dodd surged through 11-8 and although he dropped the second 12-14, the left-hander hit back to take two cracking sets both to eight and lift the trophy for the fifth time.
