Minding justified odds-on favouritism (2/5) in the opener at Leopardstown as she ran out a comfortable winner under Seamie Heffernan for Aidan O'Brien.
Second on her debut over the course earlier in the month she was dropped back a furlong to six this evening.
Settled in second she hit the front over a furlong and a half out and soon stretched clear, keeping on well inside the final furlong to win by five and a half lengths.
Newcomer The Yellow Bus (25/1) kept on well to take second under Billy Lee for David Wachman while Wachman's other runner, Know was a disappointing last.
Seamie Heffernan said afterwards: "She gave me a nice feel and is taking the right steps. She has a bit of class and hopefully she's nice."
The winner, who is out of dual Group 1 victor Lillie Langtry, is a full-sister to Kissed By Angels who won the Group 3 1,000 Guineas Trial at Leopardstown in May while she holds an entry in the Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh in September.
