Tithonus on the mark again

Tithonus claimed his third win of the season when landing the competitive Bar One Racing Handicap at Dundalk this afternoon.
Rory Cleary tracked the leaders on the 11/2 shot before claiming front-runner Abstraction at the furlong pole.
The Denis Hogan-trained gelding stuck on well in the closing stages, as Ostatnia and Sahreej came through to press, for a half length victory in the five-furlong event.
Ostatnia prevailed by a short-head for the runner-up spot.
The winner was recording his fifth career success having also won twice over six furlongs on the all-weather last winter.
Hogan was absent, as he was attending a wedding, and Cleary said afterwards:-
“Denis said you have a good draw so jump and use it.
“It all opened up well and once he got a clear run he stayed at it well. He’s very honest.”
(Quotes by Alan Magee)
