In depth
Verdict
BOTANI made his racecourse debut in a Grade 2 at Leopardstown and was by no means disgraced. He'll find this much more to his liking and looks another for Willie Mullins. Centaur is a half-brother to three winners and could provide the main threat as Ennemi Public was well beaten at Thurles after a fair debut at Cork in January. Accidental Rebel showed improved form behind Golden Spread at Thurles in March and looks best of the remainder.
