TITAN ROCK (2) returned from seventy seven days off the track with a slender victory tackling 1m at Thirsk. A 3lb rise in weights will make this tougher however he remains well-treated on the pick of form and this hardy six-year-old can follow up with the first-time hood worn last time being retained. HALE END (10) got the better of his stablemate BOY DOUGLAS (8) when the duo finished first and second at Thirsk (1m) four weeks ago with the former holding strong claims off a 4lb higher mark while the latter cannot be left out of the equation having since shown a determined attitude to go one better over 1m at Ayr. The consistent ZOZIMUS (6) also requires consideration.
