Verdict

Difficult to see TOOR GENERAL being unable to land a hat-trick of wins here following wins at Roscommon and Fairyhouse last month. The improving seven-year-old can see off the attentions of the solid and consistent, Bay Hill and the Denis Hogan-trained, Benny In Milan. Novice chase winner for previous connections, Cap'n is deserving of consideration on stable debut.
