Snitzel Equals Stakes Record

Snitzel | Arrowfield Stud

By

Arrowfield Stud stallion Snitzel (Aus) (Redoute's Choice {Aus}) has equaled a 15-year-old record for the number of stakes winners sired in an Australian season. The record is held by Snitzel's grandsire Danehill and it was matched on Wednesday when the Peter & Paul Snowden trained Calanda (Aus) won the Listed Ramornie H. at Grafton, becoming the stallion's 26th individual stakes winner this year. For Snitzel to go and beat Danehill's record will be a difficult task as there are only nine such opportunities remaining to do so, beginning with the Listed Winter S. at Rosehill on Saturday where Group 3 winner Elle Lou (Aus) has the task of adding to her stakes haul and thus elevating Snitzel into the record books.
