Ante-post market leaders Mr Mole and Cotton Mill remain among the entries for Friday's Vincent O'Brien County Hurdle at Cheltenham.

The duo are both around 7/1 chances at this stage with the former, trained by Paul Nicholls, the favourite for the Imperial Cup at Sandown and in line for a potential tilt at a big bonus if landing both races.

Ditcheat stable companion Brampour currently heads the weights while the unexposed Pine Creek, trained by John Ferguson and a stablemate of Cotton Mill, could also be primed to attempt the Esher-Prestbury Park double if things go to plan.

Tennis Cap is currently the shortest price in the betting of the Irish entries and he could represent Willie Mullins and owner Violet O'Leary.
