VILIAME (7) has a fair record and proved too classy last time to win by one length at this track in a handy 17.58 beating Classic Move. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Expected to go well again. SILVER SESSION (2) missed the frame and safely held latest finishing 8th at Capalaba following on from a win (17.56) at this track the start prior. Solid record here at this trip including three wins. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. In the mix. FERNANDO QUALITY (1) is a sprinter who thrives over these shorter races. Was in the money last time (22.80) over 400m at Bulli in a Grade 4/5. Has a strong winning record at this journey including one wins. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Will give a great sight again.

Hit the frame at final run of last campaign, finishing third (22.80) at Bulli before going for a four-and-a-half months spell. Excels fresh, unbeaten from three starts. Rates strongly and can return in winning form.

Didn't make the placings last time at Capalaba (20.41) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 11 length eighth. Box stats strong with three wins and two placings from six starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Had been in consistent form with four minors on end before missing the frame last start when eighth (23.61) at Maitland. Tricky draw to overcome and will need the right run to feature.
