Capitalist has won the $3.5 million Golden Slipper, giving trainer Peter Snowden his second triumph in the world's richest race for two-year-olds.
But unlike Snowden's first win in 2011 for Sheikh Mohammed, Saturday's victory at Rosehill was for family as he shared the moment with his son and co-trainer Paul.
And Capitalist did it in much the same Sepoy did it five years ago, lifting his form after a lead-up defeat in the Todman Stakes.
Aided by a one of the best runs in the race under jockey Blake Shinn, Capitalist sprinted to the front at the 200m and from there the result was never in doubt.
"I have to take my hat off to the team at home, Snowden racing, Peter and Paul," Shinn said.
