How many times do you have to win a race in succession before they name it after you? Mark Johnston may be asking that question tomorrow afternoon if he can land this £70,000 prize for the fourth year in a row.

The Middleham trainer will saddle three runners in his bid to follow up the wins of Maputo, Torchlighter and Resonant, as well as that of Hearthstead Maison in 2007.
