Last year's winner Rock On Ruby is among a field of nine for the Stan James Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham on Tuesday.
Quote:
Hurricane Fly and Binocular, the previous two winners of the two-mile blue riband, bid to regain their crown.
Harry Fry's Rock On Ruby will wear blinkers as he attempts to become the first horse since Hardy Eustace in 2004 and 2005 to retain his title. Paul Nicholls, who officially trained Rock On Ruby last year, is represented by Zarkandar, who is unbeaten in three starts this season and is the mount of Daryl Jacob with Ruby Walsh electing to ride Hurricane Fly.
