Flight Plan made all to take the Group 2 Dullingham Park Stakes across the Irish Sea to Karl Burke's yard.
He burst from the stalls to lead over this mile trip and Danny Tudhope got after him for more around the home bend.
The duo had the field in trouble a furlong and a-half out and moved clear at the '1' pole.
The 15/2 shot swept home by a length and a-quarter from 2/1 favourite Buckaroo Victoria Road was a head further away in third.
Jockey Danny Tudhope said: "We have finally found the way to ride him.
"We have always loved this horse and it has just taken us a bit of time to figure him out, that's the way to do it on him.
"I was surprised at that actually (getting a relatively easy lead), I had to get a good start as he didn't break very well the last day in York. That was my main aim today, just get out and get on with it.
"He's got a beautiful action on him and he strides out, and he's a lovely horse with a big engine.
"Dropping back in trip was fine and I'd say he will stay another furlong as well.
“He's going to get better and he'll be a nicer four-year-old. He's a proper looking horse and everything about him is just nice.”
"He (Karl Burke) is having an amazing season. I'm very lucky to ride for Karl and Clipper Logistics.
"To ride winners like this, on days like this, means the world to me."
