Thirteen left in Champion Hurdle

Last year's winner Binocular tops 13 six-day entries in the Stan James Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham.

Nicky Henderson's charge faces a rematch with 2010 runner-up Khyber Kim as all the big guns stand their ground.

Hurricane Fly and Dunguib lead the Irish team while Menorah and Peddlers Cross, winners of novice races at the Festival last year, remain on target.

Oscar Whisky, a stablemate of Binocular, is likely to be the mount of Barry Geraghty while Kingwell Hurdle winner Mille Chief and the front-running Overturn are also entered.

Bygones Of Brid, Clerk's Choice, Salden Licht and Thousand Stars complete the field.
