Jockey Michelle Payne could not have wished for a better result than claiming her first Group One winner on a Bart Cummings-trained mare who she is now a chance to ride in next week's Caulfield Cup.

Payne, 24, described it as "a dream come true" after she pumped home outsider Allez Wonder ($41) to win by a long neck from Gold Salute ($9) with Epsom Handicap winner Rock Kingdom ($13) a short half-head away in Saturday's Group One Toorak Handicap (1600m) at Caulfield.

Cummings will now run Allez Wonder in the Caulfield Cup which he has won twice with past Toorak Handicap winners Galilee (1966) and Leilani (1974).

"She might not be as good them but she has got a big heart," Cummings said.

"The only way she could get into the Caulfield Cup was to win today so I had no option but to run her and as I always say, you have got to be in to win it."

Allez Wonder is exempt from the Caulfield Cup ballot and with only 50kg, Payne is the frontrunner to ride her.

Asked his opinion of Payne, Cummings replied: "She is a pretty little thing and she rides well."

Payne estimated that she had previously ridden in 15 Group Ones without success.

Coincidentally, the 2003 Toorak Handicap was to be her first Group One ride on Tycoon Ruler but she was too ill to take the mount and he was unplaced.

"I was devastated but I have made amends today to win for Bart," Payne said.

Allez Wonder, who finished third to Samantha Miss in last year's VRC Oaks and was unplaced in the AJC Oaks, has raced 15 times for three wins.

She won her first at Kembla Grange in March and last start wad ridden by Damien Oliver when she landed the Pacific Communications Handicap (2040m) at Moonee Valley on September 30.

She can't handle wet tracks and Cummings scratched her from a race at Moonee Valley on Friday night to contest the Toorak.

Cole Diesel was the last of nine Toorak-Caulfield Cup winners in 1989.

Payne has been riding for more than eight years and modelled her riding style on that of her brother Patrick who won numerous Group One races including the 2002 Cox Plate on Northerly.

"I have always tried to improve myself watching other riders and I have worked towards this for a long time," Payne said.

"It is just a dream come true."

She said as the runs came Allez Wonder took them and it was only a matter of edging out at the 200 metres to win the race.

"I was rapt in the run, where she landed and the way she travelled," Payne said.

"I got a lovely run up inside Mentality down the side and it didn't hit me until the 200 metres where I thought I was going to win, that it was a Group One race.

"It still probably hasn't hit me."

Equal favourite Raheeb ($5.50) led and held on to finish fourth while the other top fancy Raffaello was the disappointment of the race and finished 11th after dropping back at the start from barrier one.
