Acapulco made a successful Irish debut in the Sole Power Sprint Stakes at the Curragh.

The flying filly was a brilliant juvenile when trained in America by Wesley Ward, winning the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot in 2015, but has been switched to Aidan O'Brien and is in-foal to Galileo.

The 11-8 favourite settled in midfield and took a little while to hit top gear when asked by Donnacha O'Brien, but she eventually found her stride and pulled away to beat Ardhoomey by half a length.

Paddy Power cut the winner to 4-1 from 6-1 for the King's Stand Stakes back at the Royal meeting next month.
