Strong tempo with Tamahagane and Smile Quartz leading from Koyu Love Love and Daphnis. KOYU LOVE LOVE (10) has been a regular in the winners' stall of late including last start in dominant fashion over 1400m at this track. Winning rider Masayoshi Aoyagi retains the mount. Nicely placed to get the job done again. APOLLO MIRACLE (9) made it four wins in a row last time out when he scored by 1.5 lengths over 1500m at this track. Winning rider Tatsuya Nakajima retains the mount. Nicely placed to get the job done again. GRACIANO (1) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by 4 lengths over 1400m at this track. Has five wins here. Can measure up again. ZELOSO (2) turned in a fine effort to win by 2.5 lengths at today's track and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders.
