Toormore took his unblemished record to three with an emphatic all-the-way win in the Goffs Vincent O'Brien National Stakes at the Curragh.
Richard Hughes bounced the Richard Hannon-trained colt out of the stalls and set the pace he wanted.
The even-money favourite asserted a furlong to win from his main market rival Sudirman, with Giovanni Boldini third.
