Now there's a title you don't often see on the Answer Bank! I've raced through it, then come to a grinding halt with the last 4. If I can have help with these two, I should manage to finish it. 6d, Fighting bird willing to stand on pile of hay: ?a?s?o?k - something ending in cokc, but what? 15d, Resilience of lad reportedly caught in a U.S. city: b?????c? As ever, grateful for any assistance.
