    Fair Along

    The only victories in the last two seasons for Philip Hobbs' stable stalwart have come in this Grade Two contest over three miles and a furlong.

    And he figures among 14 entries for this year's renewal, in which the 2010 runner-up Kayf Aramis, trained by Nigel Twiston-Davies, is a possible. The Naunton trainer has also put in Pettifour, who took this prize in 2008.

    Champion trainer Paul Nicholls is considering starting off last year's Cheltenham Gold Cup fourth What A Friend in this race.

    David Pipe's Ashkazar, George Charlton's Knockara Beau and the Robin Dickin-trained Restless Harry are other interesting possibles.

    Cantlow, Mobaasher and Moghaayer complete the home contingent.

    There are four Irish-trained entries - Gordon Elliott's pair of Carlito Brigante and Russian War, and Stuart Crawford's duo of Killyglen and Now This Is It.
