About

American Sniper is an 8yo horse trained by D Pipe in Wellington. Sired by Malinas out of Mountain Leap, the gelding has captured four victories so far. Its biggest triumph came on 7 Nov 2024 at Newbury, where it secured the $24,592.00 Cl2 Hcph prize. The runner has been a rewarding prospect for bettors, delivering a 3% return on investment for those who backed it throughout its career.
