The Snowden Racing stable has a great record in the $200,000 Listed Ramornie Handicap (1200m) at Grafton and they won it for a sixth time on Wednesday when consistent five year-old Capitalist gelding Ka Bling dived through late to snatch victory.

Having his third run back from a spell, Ka Bling was ready to fire and under a well timed ride from Andrew Adkins was able to score by a neck in a hectic finish.

Peter Snowden was at the track to greet Ka Bling, who is his sixth winner of the Ramornie following victories by Pinwheel, Jerezana, Calanda, Signore Fox and Ranges.

“It has been a great race to us and to win it for the sixth time is very satisfying,” said Peter Snowden, who was full of praise for Andrew Adkins.

“He is one that has kept on improving with every preparation. He was an average horse as a two and three-year-old, but he has got through to stakes level and to win a race like the Ramornie is a great reward for him.”

“It was a good ride and the horse was very tough.”

Ka Bling was a $200,000 Inglis Easter Round 2 Sale purchase from Macquarie Stud for Snowden Racing and has the overall record of seven wins and 11 placings from 29 starts with prizemoney topping $480,000.

He is now the best of five winners from Group III winning Redoute’s Choice mare Zingaling, who is also the grand-dam of Russian Revolution stakes-winner Brudenell.

There is plenty of Black Type in this female family that also features Group I winner Inspirational Girl and Group II winner Demonetization.

Zingaling has been a regular visitor to Newgate Farm’s Capitalist and also has two year-old and yearling fillies by the son of Written Tycoon and is now in foal to Russian Revolution.

Ka Bling is the 20th lifetime stakes-winner and seventh in Australia this season for Capitalist, who is the youngest stallion in the Top 10 Australian Sires by earnings with 135 winners of over $11million in prizemoney.

He stands at a fee of $66,000 this spring.
