40/1
Modest maiden on the Flat. 150/1, first run since leaving D. Satalia when sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, soft) on UK NH debut 20 days ago. Lots more is needed.

13/8
Opened his account at Newton Abbot in September and posted a very good third of 16 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, soft, 9/2) 20 days ago. That race has thrown up several winners so he merits serious consideration off the same mark.

Back with his former yard when promising second of 8 in handicap hurdle (2/1) at Fakenham (16f, soft) 17 days ago, making his effort earlier than ideal. Player nudged up 1 lb.

Fair maiden hurdler who wasn't disgraced on his first run since leaving Mitchell Hunt when sixth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (18.5f, soft, 18/1) 37 days ago. Needs considering.

Forecasts

Imperial Measure (13/8), Sailed Away (5/2), Gyllen (9/2), Atreides (15/2), Wilderness (11/1), King Of Lombardy (20/1), Caitlin's Court (20/1), Nathan Walker (25/1), Haafbourd (33/1), I Love You Sivola (40/1), Bowmans Dream (100/1)

15:10 Taunton - 30 November 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

IMPERIAL MEASURE arrives at the top of his game and looks the way to go with the form of his recent Exeter third proving really strong. Sailed Away rates much the biggest danger on the back of a promising Fakenham second when reunited with Stuart Edmunds. In-form maidens Gyllen and Atreides need considering for place purposes.
