The all -weather season ended on Good Friday, April 18, with the first Weather Champion coach.
Carroll, who took second place at Mick Appleby last season, folded 57 winners, 11 free of his next rival, James Owen.
“For me personally, it's a great performance and I'm very proud of it,” said Carroll. “A gigantic thank you to the team at home – Titsch, Mary and everyone involved. They are people who never run and are never seen, but they are the backbone behind it.
“The horses were fantastic all winter. The horses were very hearty, right and the owners were fantastic. Arc did a great thing and we all really enjoyed it.”
With Jack Doughty, the winner of Carroll by Carroll of the all-weather champion apprentice, Jack Doughty was fantastic for the farm and it is great for us to win together. He is only 17, but it has been wonderful for some time. It was a pleasure to have in the yard and they could always be a little different, and it was always a little different than the rest.
“We had 57 winners in the all -weather this season, but I think Init (GB) (Poet's Voice {GB}) is the only one who won four. The rest was put together by individual horses, so it is a great performance of them.”
Billy Loughnane was a first winner of the all-weather jockey title. He has been the all-weather champion apprentice in the past two years. Godolphin scored his 11th title in a row with 15 wins, two better than Rabbah Racing.
Loughnane, who had 75 victories, four better than Hector Crouch, said: “I am thrilled. It was a good winter and a long tough fight with Hector in the past few months, which is obviously a great jockey, and it was a gigantic last one to get it over the line.
“It was good to be able to get a little time in Australia, to come back and to receive a lot of support from numerous different coaches who helped me and my agent Tony Hind, who is a superagent and does a great job.
“Obviously, Papa runs the majority of his horses on the all -weather and I grew up around them.
“Dad has a gigantic team and George Boughey is now my main boss, but there are many coaches who Kubler and Ian Williams, to name just two who gave me a lot of support, so it's great.”
