Hollie Doyle was delighted to win the world's oldest sporting trophy on Carlisle's renowned Bell & Plate Day.
Doyle, on board the 15/2 shot Mostawaa, saw off the challenge of Liamarty Dreams by half a length.
The Heather Main-trained seven-year old's victory on Wednesday saw the 16th-century Carlisle Bell claimed by Doyle.
She also completed a unique feat in UK racing as she has now ridden a winner at every Flat track in the UK.
The £30,000 Carlisle Bell has a unique place in sporting history, having first been run all the way back in 1599. The mile contest is also run for the oldest sporting trophy in the world - two silver bells which date even further back to 1559.
Doyle said of Mostawaa: “He’s turned a corner in his old age. He won at Brighton two starts ago and then he went to York and toughed it out.
"I got a very easy lead that day and things fell right whereas today there was plenty of pace on paper, so you just never know. He stuck to it well on soft ground and I think we can investigate going up to 10 furlongs now.
“It said in the paper that I’d only had about four rides here [at Carlisle] and I thought it was more, but I definitely hadn’t had a winner here up until today. It’s good to get a winner here as it’s a long way to come!”
Meanwhile, the £16,000 consolation race (the Jason Watson 25 Years Carlisle Bell Consolation Handicap) was won in determined style by the Susan Corbett-trained Clear Angel (7/2), who completed a double under Graham Lee having struck at Wetherby in April.
Vetiver (7/2) ensured that a productive few days continued for jockey P J McDonald, after claiming Listed honours in the British Stallion Studs EBF Eternal Stakes.
Elsewhere on the card was the £30,000 Stablemate By Agma Cumberland Plate Handicap over a mile and three furlongs, which saw the Mick and David Easterby-trained Two Brothers (6/1) strike under an enterprising ride by Billy Garritty.
Meanwhile, the John Quinn-trained Due For Luck (9-1) made a winning debut in the opening Mark Nield Wealth Management Restricted Maiden Stakes, winning by two and a half lengths under Jason Hart.
