PRO FORMA (12) was well held in the Talindert Stakes won by Aardvark over 5½f at Flemington at his last appearance ten months ago. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Leading contender. TERRITORY ASH (3) is a talented filly who was well held last time out in the tougher Mode Plate won by Spicy Martini over 6f at Doomben, beaten 5.5 lengths into sixth. Very well placed in this company and looks hard to beat. THAT'S INTERESTING (4) is a promising type who finished in the placings over 5½f at Doomben at her last appearance on September 7. Has never been out of the placings when resuming from two tries. Has a high cruising speed. Should be involved in the finish. THUNDERING SOUL (5) was below his best last time, finishing seventh and beaten 4.5 lengths over 7f at Eagle Farm. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
