GARDE LA PECHE looked not unlucky not to finish closer when fourth at Kilbeggan last month and is given a chance to build on that promise. West Clare finished runner-up in a point at the start of his career and rates an interesting recruit to the chasing ranks on the back of a hurdle success last autumn. Recent Down Royal handicap hurdle winner Gustavo Goodway completes the shortlist.
