About
Snakeinthegrass is a 4yo bay mare from Australia trained by Peter Gelagotis. She is by the stallion Written By out of Revasseur. To date she has recorded one victory. On 8 Mar 2026 at Stony Creek she secured her biggest triumph, winning the $32,000 Maiden Plate. Punters have found her to be a money‑making runner; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 20% return on investment.
