Gai Waterhouse | Gai Waterhouse Horses Available 13101 Snitzeldalt Vila 24

By Snitzel, this filly carries the sort of pedigree that immediately catches the eye. Snitzel has been one of the defining stallions of the modern Australian era, and his record speaks for itself with 170 stakes winners, 110 Group winners and 23 individual Group 1 winners. He has sired horses like Trapeze Artist, Lady Shenandoah, Redzel, Russian Revolution, Marhoona and Shamus Award, showing the level of class and consistency he continues to produce.

The page underneath gives her a really appealing international edge. She is out of Dalt Vila, a daughter of Deep Impact, whose influence as a broodmare sire is growing all the time, with 63 stakes winners and 47 Group winners. Dalt Vila is a half-sister to Dalkala, the Champion Older Female in France, while the family also includes Four Moves Ahead, a high-class Australian filly who won at Group 2 level and measured up in the best company.

It is a pedigree with plenty of depth and plenty of quality. Snitzel gives her that proven Australian sire power, while the mare’s side brings a proper international black type family. She looks like a neat, sharp athletic filly, the sort Gai & Adrian love to train.
