A trainer on Wednesday is looking to have a winner on the flat at Beverley, sending just one runner to the Yorkshire based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 422 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 Andrew Balding loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 17% during his career having had 168 winners from 998 runners.

One to beat today under a penalty.
