A trainer on Monday is looking to have a winner at Ayr on the flat, sending just one runner to the Scottish based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 822 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 Mick Channon loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 15% during his career having had 24 winners from 160 runners.

Legend Of Xanadu was a promising second on debut at Pontefract and there looks to be a strong chance he can improve for his first run.
