Think Thoroughbred, Think Ireland Handicap Chase

CARPE DIEM left previous efforts in this discipline behind when bolting up in a first-time visor over C&D a fortnight ago. Provided the headgear is just as effective here, David Bridgwater's 8-y-o is strongly fancied to defy a 10 lb rise and follow up. The obvious threat is Dublin To Milan, who is very much the type to flourish over fences (made frame all 3 starts in points) and makes his return from 10 months off.
