KOVANIS has joined top connections for a hefty sum after an easy point win and he's the obvious one to side with having his first go under Rules. Soir De Garde should improve on his debut and, in the unlikely even that Kilwaughter participates 2 days on from his winning debut, he'd be a live danger.
