Trainer David O'Meara on Monday is looking to have a winner at Chepstow on the flat, sending just one runner to the Welsh based track on the day, which sees the handler make a 428 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 11% during his career having had 244 winners from 2315 runners.

Charging Thunder has performed well in both of his contests to date finishing third on debut at Ripon and last time out was a decent fourth at Redcar, only going down by two lengths.

He looks to be going in the right direction and this events represents itself as one he could take out.
