Peace One Duc, Keiai Sena and Igatchi to take up the running at a decent tempo. FAUST RASEN (2) is much better than recent runs look. Hasn't raced since tackling the Grade 1 Osaka Hai at Hanshin. Huge class drop and has won fresh. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal this company. IGATCHI (5) returns after a spell of nine weeks. Looking to emulate his win at Kyoto to kick off the last campaign. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. KEIAI SENA (8) finished tenth over 1600m in the G3 Lord Derby Challenge Trophy at Nakayama at his most recent appearance on April 4. This easier and worth plenty of thought. ECORO DINOS (12) comes here off a break of 12 weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 2200m at Kyoto. Among the better hopes.
