Sire De Grugy heads 10 entries for the Shloer Chase at Cheltenham on Sunday after the race was re-opened.

Gary Moore's stable star was beaten by Kid Cassidy in this race last season before going on to dominate the two-mile division with victories in the Tingle Creek, Desert Orchid, Clarence House, Queen Mother Champion and Celebration Chases.

The Tingle Creek at Sandown next month is on the agenda again for the eight-year-old, who underwent an operation at the end of the last campaign to have bone chips removed from his ankles.

Module, who was third to Sire De Grugy in the Champion Chase, has been given an entry by his trainer Tom George, while Paul Nicholls is double-handed with Dodging Bullets and Rebel Rebellion.

Completing the list are Alan King's Uxizandre, Richard Lee's Grey Gold, David Pipe's Poole Master, Simply Ned from Nicky Richards's stable, the Evan Williams-trained Lancetto and Nigel Twiston-Davies' Papradon.
