A trainer on Thursday is looking to have a winner over the jumps at Catterick, sending just one runner to the Yorkshire based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 414 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 Kim Bailey loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 28% during his career having had 70 winners from 252 runners.
A winner on hurdles debut over 2m4f on soft ground at Ffos Las and although under a penalty today, the step up in trip should bring more improvement.
