Trainer Mick Channon on Wednesday is looking to have a winner at Catterick on the flat, sending just one runner to the Yorkshire based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 466 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.

The handler loves bringing his horses this far currently running at a strike rate of 13% during his career having had 90 winners from 704 runners.

Clifford is looking to break his duck at the third time of asking having needed the experience on his debut, but last time out seemed to have improved a fair bit to a good second at Brighton.

The quicker the ground the better for this horse and he looks a big contender in this field.
