Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 28 Journalists Share Posted June 28 Trainer Peter Snowden.(Reg Ryan/Racing Photos) Peter and Paul Snowden are set to have their final elite-level runner together when Coco Jamboo contests Saturday’s Group 1 Tattersalls Tiara (1400m) at Eagle Farm. This follows the shock announcement that the father-and-son team intend to dissolve their training partnership at the end of the current racing season. Issuing a statement on Thursday, Snowden Racing revealed the surprise news, stating the decision was mutual and would allow Paul to spend more time with his family. “Paul has a young family to care for, and we have mutually decided that it is the right time for him to take a step back and be able to focus on them,” Peter Snowden said in a statement on X. “Since the establishment of Snowden Racing in 2014, we have had some incredible success together, and Paul’s contribution to the business will be hugely missed. “As for Snowden Racing, it will be business as usual at our Royal Randwick and Flemington stables as we continue to strive for success and provide results for our owners.” Peter Snowden confirmed his son would officially finish up at the conclusion of the current racing term on July 31. The duo has celebrated plenty of success over the last decade, preparing the likes of Mazu (Maurice), Russian Revolution (Snitzel), Sheeza Belter (Gold Standard), Captivant (Capitalist), Pride Of Dubai (Street Cry), Shooting To Win (Northern Meteor), Capitalist (Written Tycoon), and Redzel (Snitzel) to big-race wins. Team Snowden has trained 29 Sydney metropolitan winners this season and will be represented by Touristic in the Listed McKell Cup (2000m) at Rosehill on Saturday.
