Al Boum Photo will face a maximum of 12 rivals as he targets a third successive Cheltenham Gold Cup next week.
Willie Mullins' runner will join a select band of three-time winners if he can triumph again in the Festival showpiece, becoming the first horse since Best Mate in 2004 to complete the feat.
