Passing Trade completed a memorable night for both Gary Carroll and trainer Mick Mulvany when running out a game winner of the Lougher Stables Handicap at Bellewstown.

It was a treble on the card for the winning jockey and also three winners on the night for Mulvany who was also successful with Stormy Tale down in Tipperary.

Passing Trade tracked the leaders in the seven-furlong contest before taking closer order passing the two pole.

The Raven's Pass filly tackled Lady Godiva over a furlong from home and got on top in the closing stages to post a half length victory at odds of 4/1.

“She did it well and that's probably more her trip. I thought she didn't stay at Ballinrobe the last time,” said Carroll.

“She was actually keen a lot of the way around but when it came to the battle she battled well to the line.

“Hopefully there's another one in her and Galway might be a good place for her.

“That's my third treble.”

Carroll had teamed up with Mulvany in the previous contest with My Silver Nails while he had also taken the opener on the Ger Lyons-trained Bailly
