A trainer on Wednesday is looking to have a winner over the jumps at Musselburgh, sending just one runner to the Scottish based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 744 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 Archie Watson loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 38% during his career having had 22 winners from 58 runners.

Making his hurdles debut this afternoon for a yard that have been performing well with their national hunt horses of late, he is worth a watch.
