Orsm stays well but makes his first appearance since October off a career-high mark. Amber Flush has been chasing and veteran Solway Bay is also better over the larger obstacles but Tinseltown must have some sort of chance on his latest second over 2m4f here, though will have to prove his stamina. FRENCH SEVENTYFIVE has won two of his three previous races around here. He's been raised 6lb since last month's victory over course and distance but none of the others inspire much confidence.
