The two year-old maiden at Kembla on Tuesday features a number of interesting first starters including a Godolphin runner by Exceed and Excel from one of their best producing mares.

Connoisseur is a full brother to G3 winner Safeguard

Two year-old colt Connoisseur is the 11^th and final foal from Group I winning Canny Lad mare Preserve, a half-sister to Group I winner and sire Denman.

Preserve has had nine foals to race and all are winners headed by Group III winners Safeguard and Archives, so Connoisseur can hopefully keep his mother's record perfect.
