Feltham Novices' Chase winner Tea For Two is among an entry of 30 for the £100,000 Sodexo Gold Cup Handicap Chase at Ascot on Saturday.
The Nick Williams-trained seven-year-old only ran once after his finest hour, when third to Bristol De Mai in the Scilly Isles over half a mile less.
Jonjo O'Neill has entered Minella Rocco and Holywell, while Paul Nicholls has entered Present Man, Saphir Du Rheu and Southfield Theatre.
Ben Pauling has given Local Show the option but expects the ground to prove too fast.
"I'm keen to get him started somewhere, but while I've given him the entry I just can't see the ground being soft enough for him," said Pauling.
"We might have to look at the Hennessy."
Menorah is a possible for Philip Hobbs but is thought more likely to go to Wetherby, Neil Mulholland has put in The Young Master with Thomas Brown another notable entry.
Irish Cavalier, Junction Fourteen, Potters Cross and Sausalito Sunrise are all entered.
