A trainer on Monday is looking to have a winner at Musselburgh on the flat, sending just one runner to the Scottish based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 518 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 Ivan Furtado loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 25% during his career having had two winners from just eight runners.

He sends Boasty to Scotland today, looking to keep his good run going.
