BANKER

Camile(8.35 Gowran Park)

This five-year-old mare, who was previously with Jessica Harrington and Philip Rothwell, took advantage of her lowly mark of 45 when winning with plenty in hand in an 18-runner handicap on her first Flat start for Joseph O'Brien last month and looks to have a great chance of following up off 8lb higher. She remains extremely well handicapped off a mark of 53 (career-high rating of 79) and the way she did it at Navan suggests that she has plenty more to give. O'Brien does well with his Flat string and although she may appreciate a bit of give in the ground, this is a perfect opportunity to get another win on the board.

GOOD THING

No I'm Easy (4.35 Chester)

Richard Kingscote and Tom Dascombe do extremely well at this meeting and they look ready to strike with No I'm Easy, who makes his first start in handicap company following a 228-day break. The son of Zoffany made a good start to his career when second to Godophin's subsequent Group 2 third Mythical Magic on debut at Ascot (form worked out well in behind), before duly going one better at Thirsk. He was last seen finishing down the field in the Group 2 Mill Reef Stakes behind James Garfield. This is a much easier assignment and he's sure to be ready first time up. His draw in stall seven is slightly concerning but hopefully he can get a nice pitch.

EYECATCHER

Hunting Horn (3.35 Chester)

Aidan O'Brien's record in the Chester Vase is incredible and he can add another winner to the tally with Hunting Horn. Although I don't think he's going to be by any means the best horse in the long term in this line-up – stablemate Family Tree and Young Rascal have a lot of potential and could be Derby horses – Hunting Horn brings solid form to the table and has the benefit of two runs this year. He won his maiden cosily at the start of April before looking an unlucky loser when staying on to finish third in a Classic trial at Sandown two weeks ago. The step up in trip will help and he has a nice draw in stall one.
