Un De Sceaux will face a maximum of 11 rivals in the Betway Queen Mother Champion Chase at next week's Cheltenham Festival.

Last year's Arkle Trophy winner is odds-on across the board to provide Willie Mullins with his first victory in the two-mile chasing showpiece on Wednesday.

The all-conquering champion trainer could also call upon Felix Yonger Twinlight and Vautour although the latter is widely expected to line up in the Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup two days later.

The last three winners of the Champion Chase are in the field, with Nicky Henderson's resurgent 2013 scorer Sprinter Sacre widely considered the biggest threat to the favourite.

Trainer Gary Moore has suggested he could reach for the blinkers for 2014 winner Sire De Grugy while last year's hero Dodging Bullets is back to defend his crown for Paul Nicholls. God's Own Just Cameron Sizing Granite Somersby and Special Tiara complete the confirmations.
