Son of Snitzel to Clearview Park

Clearview Park Stud in Timaru has announced the arrival of its exciting new stallion Snapback, a son of champion sire Snitzel, ahead of the e 2025 breeding season.

Trained by the Peter and Paul Snowden and raced in the China Horse Club colours, Snapback was a talented two-year-old with strong metropolitan form and is now set to launch a stud career built on performance, pedigree, and presence.

The brown entire was a winner over 1300m at two and Group Two placed when runner-up to Cifrado in the BRC Sires’ Produce Stakes (1400m). 

“He’s by one of the world’s leading stallions, and he brings all the muscle, movement, and swagger we want in a young sire,” said  Clearview Park’s Aaron Tapper.

“We’re excited to offer South Island breeders a commercial stallion with serious upside.”

Snapback is out of stakes placed mare Later Gator (by More Than Ready) and is a full brother to Group Two-winning mare Wee Nessy, trained by Mick Price & Michael Kent Jnr.

His pedigree combines two-year-old speed, a strong female family, and a proven cross that has already produced stakes success.

Snapback stands at a 16.1hh and his introductory fee is $5,000 + GST.
