The stocks of first-season sire Snitzel continue to rise with One More Grand adding his name to the metropolitan winners' list at Rosehill.
Trained by Neville Layt at Queanbeyan, One More Grand came to town following a 5-1/2 length win on his home track on December 17.
It was the fourth Sydney city win for Snitzel's progeny after Chance Bye took out the $250,000 Inglis Nursery and Intertidal won two races in October.
Tommy Berry jumped One More Grand ($10) straight to the front in Saturday's Golden Slipper Festival On Sale Hcp (1100m) and kicked away after being briefly challenged by $3.50 favourite Rock My Heart to win by 3-3/4 lengths.
Layt is recovering from back surgery and was not at the track.
However, Gerald Ryan, trainer of the runner-up, was on hand for the race.
Ryan trained Snitzel throughout his short but stellar career which included an Oakleigh Plate and also prepares Intertidal.
"I've got five Snitzels but most of mine look more like 1400-metre horses," Ryan said.
The Chris Waller-trained Much Much More ($5) finished three-quarters of a length from Rock My Heart in third place with the field strung out as heavy rain fell during the race.
