Default how to cut part of a text from one cell and automatically paste itonto another cell

Hello,

Please see below example: I have column A1 which has information
CHI090169094 BKG# 19802749 and I want to extract BKG# 19802749 and
put it into column B1 and delete the information that was in A1 for
BKG# 19802749.
Can someone advise how I can do this. I tried using the formula =LEFT
(A1, 13) and it captures CHI090169094 and pastes into B1 column. But
That's not what I'm looking for. I would like for the formula to
capture BKG# 19802749 from A1 and put it into column B1 and delete
the information that was copied from cell A1.

A1 B1
CHI090169094 BKG# 19802749 BKG# 19802749
CHI090114574 BKG# 18133600
CHI090122224 BKG# 16469485

Thanks,
Sonia
