A trainer on Wednesday is looking to have a winner at Lingfield on the flat, sending just one runner to the Surrey based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 542 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 Charlie Johnston loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 21% during his career having had 14 winners from 66 runners.
