About
Sandpaper is a 7yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Bjorn Baker at Warwick Farm. He is by Snitzel out of Smooth. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $888,375, Sandpaper is considered a horse of above‑average ability. On 7 March 2025 at Newcastle, ridden by Tim Clark, he captured his biggest victory to date in the $250,000 Open Quality, beating Amenable. He has consistently provided value to bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 12% return on investment.
