Off the top of my head, the Open includes:

GM Keith Arkell
GM Mark Hebden
GM Aaron Summerscale
IM Richard Palliser
FM Ben Hague
FM Alexei Slavin (Russia - FIDE 2392)

Is this the info you wanted? I will try to get a fuller list if that helps.

Billy: I haven't seen an entry from Jonathan Hawkins, but my info is a few days old. No doubt there will be the usual last minute rush of entries.

Ian: David Howell has entered, as has IM Craig Pritchett. No news on the other big names that you mentioned, but see my comment above.
