A trainer on Thursday is looking to have a winner at Sedgefield over the jumps, sending just one runner to the track on the day, which sees the handler make a 562 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 24% during his career having had 111 winners from 455 runners.

The seven year old mare Get An Oscar is officially 3lb well in for this staying event being 1lb lower than her mark when last seen at Worcester finishing a good second.

She steps up in trip having showed good ability over staying distances thus far and her trainer Peter Bowen is in some smart form.

Weighted to strike.
