A trainer on Wednesday is looking to have a winner at Newcastle over the jumps, sending just one runner to the northern based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 488 mile round trip.

When we see trainers coming such a long way to just run the one horse we like to highlight it, as we believe they would not be coming all that way if it did not have a real chance.

Trainer George Scott loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 19% during his career having had 34 winners from 178 runners.
