A step up in distance and class proved to be no barrier to success for the improving Waardah in the Qatar Lillie Langtry Stakes at Goodwood.
The Owen Burrows-trained filly impressed when landing a 10-furlong Listed event at this venue in early June, but she faced another half a mile and better opposition in this Group Two contest.
Ridden by Callum Rodriguez, Waardah was a well supported 7-2 chance at the off and after travelling smoothly into contention early in the home straight, she was coaxed to the front heading inside the final two furlongs.
Her stamina was given a thorough examination, with the the gallant Danielle refusing to go down without a fight, but Waardah saw her off and passed the post three-quarters of a length in front.
Rodriguez, who was one of five jockeys involved in a dramatic emergency landing on Thursday after the light aircraft in which they were travelling to Goodwood suffered what was thought to have been an engine problem, told ITV Racing: "It was a messy start to the week, but we made sure that we were on four wheels today!
"I'm very pleased to get that one off my back. She is a rapidly improving filly and has a nice way of racing. It was a very good performance."
Two Tribes bagged his second major prize in the space of a week with victory in the Coral Stewards' Cup.
Richard Spencer's charge was a 25-1 winner of the International Handicap at Ascot last Saturday and was turned out swiftly under 6lb penalty for the £250,000 on the final day of the Qatar Goodwood Festival.
With David Egan again in the saddle, 11-2 shot Two Tribes was up with the pace from the start in the group that raced closest to the stands' rail and took over the lead from last year's winner Get It entering the final two furlongs.
His stablemate Run Boy Run looked the biggest threat over on the far side of the track entering the closing stages, but Two Tribes kept up the gallop and was well on top as he passed the post with just over two lengths in hand.
Strike Red and Jakajaro chased him home in second and third respectively, with Run Boy Run fourth and another Spencer runner in Twilight Calls fifth.
