More Of That, unbeaten winner of the Ladbrokes World Hurdle, features among eight entries for the bet365 Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury on Saturday after the Grade Two contest was reopened.

The Jonjo O'Neill-trained six-year-old has not raced since beating Annie Power in the stayers' championship at the Cheltenham Festival in March.

More Of That's owner, JP McManus, also has At Fishers Cross, who was third at Cheltenham and last of four in this race 12 months ago after making a bad mistake at the second-last.

On his reappearance, At Fishers Cross was last of three behind Cole Harden and Alan King's Medinas in the bet365 Hurdle at Wetherby.

Cole Harden's trainer Warren Greatrex is looking forward to saddling his progressive seven-year-old at the Berkshire track.

"He is in really good form and I can't wait to get him back on the track again," the Upper Lambourn handler told www.wgreatrexracing.com.

"He has improved since Wetherby and looks fantastic. Let's hope he can keep on improving."

Rebecca Curtis, the trainer of At Fishers Cross, also has Peckhamecho, who won a Pertemps Series qualifier at Aintree on his latest start.

The Paul Nicholls-trained Lac Fontana, third to Faugheen in the Coral Hurdle, Emma Lavelle's smart staying chaser Shotgun Paddy and Luke Dace's American Spin complete the eight possibles.

More Of That has been installed 4-11 favourite with bookmakers Paddy Power. Cole Harden is next best at 4-1, with At Fishers Cross at 6s.
