Trainer Joseph Murphy said the unlikely win was the culmination of his life's work and there were emotional scenes in the winner's enclosure afterwards.
But the superstar filly will need a new jockey for her intended run in the Irish Oaks after Carroll was hit with a big ban.
He has been whacked with a two-week suspension and fined £5,800 for using his whip twice above the limit of six in the mile race.

However, she has now decided to part ways with Daly. "Only have good things to say about Coco, enjoyed working with her," he said. World No3 Gauff has replaced him with biomechanics expert Gavin MacMillan. She has struggled with her serve since the first-round defeat at Wimbledon last month.

An outpouring of support followed, with Morton fans unfurling a banner reading: "keep fighting Remi." Remi was in a neonatal intensive care unit at Wishaw Hospital fighting for her life, with Imrie and partner Lauren by her side. He was commuting from Greenock to the North Lanarkshire town every day. Imrie had returned to work after missing the opening game of the league season and last week had described how "life at the minute is hour by hour, day by day." The former Hamilton and St Mirren player, 42, praised the "fantastic people" who were caring for Remi. Imrie said: 'They have been incredible and not only for Remi. I'm in that unit day in and day out and they are so good at their work with all the babies. 'I'll never be able to thank or repay these people enough for what they're doing. The attention to detail they put in on a daily basis is nothing less than remarkable.' In a heartbreaking update, Imrie has confirmed the devastating news that Remi has passed away. On social media, he posted: "30.07.25-19.08.25 "Our girl got tired in the early hours of Tuesday morning & decided it was time to rest. "'If love could have saved you, you would have lived forever'." "1/2 "20 days of loving you Remi, I hope you know how much you were loved and we will cherish the short time we got to spend with you, a true wee fighter from the minute you were born. We love you baby girl." An outpouring of tributes followed from fans and friends alike. They were led by Imrie's club, Morton. They said: "The Greenock Morton Football Club family are devastated to learn of the tragic passing of Remi Imrie. "The heartfelt condolences of all associated with the club go to Dougie Imrie, his partner Lauren and the full family at this extremely sad time. "Greenock Morton at this time requests the privacy of the family as they try to come to terms with this profound loss, and we will continue to provide our full support."
