A trainer on Wednesday is looking to have a winner at Hexham over the jumps, sending just one runner to the northern based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 572 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 Philip Hobbs loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 27% during his career having had 30 winners from 110 runners.
Needs to be better than his chase debut but looks to want a trip and the Snowden yard are in flying form over the last two weeks running at a 22% strike rate.
