TELECOM POWER

Three weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse performed well despite a slow jump, settling towards the rear and making a mid-race move with good acceleration throughout. He finished sixth, beaten two and a half lengths. This race requires carrying one pound more weight. Having shown form over this course and distance, and with competitive times recorded, drawing a favorable barrier position, his chances are reasonable. Based on current form compared to the competition, he appears to be a leading contender. The trainer and jockey have a good rapport and appear to have prepared him well for a strong challenge.
