Inothewayurthinkin and Galopin Des Champs top 33 names in Gold Cup mix

SOMETHING TO PROVE: Inothewayurthinkin was an impressive winner of last year's Cheltenham Gold Cup but has yet to sparkle in two runs this season. Picture: Bradley Collyer/PA

Last year's hero Inothewayurthinkin, two-time winner Galopin Des Champs, and the Harry Redknapp-owned The Jukebox Man are among 33 entries for the Boodles Cheltenham Gold Cup.

Of the 33, only nine are trained in the UK, headed by The Jukebox Man, a thrilling winner of the King George VI Chase at Kempton Park for Ben Pauling on St Stephen’s Day. The British entries do, however, represent an increase on the record low of five 12 months ago, while this year's 33 contenders is a jump from just 19 last year.
