A trainer on Wednesday is looking to have a winner at Kelso over the jumps, sending just one runner to the Scottish track on the day, which sees the handler make a 430 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 50% during his career having had two winners from four runners.

Chapati looks to be a bright seven year old gelding, winning last time out on his second attempt over fences having ran nicely on his chase debut aswell.

He is only 4lb higher for that run and with Brian Hughes in the saddle looks an obvious candidate to go close in this event.
