"Where Heritage Shapes the Future of Racing"

Founded in 1910 by Lord Howard de Walden, Snailwell Stud quickly established itself as a cornerstone of British racing. In 1945, it was acquired by the visionary Stanhope Joel, under whose guidance it flourished as a prestigious stallion station. The stud was home to legendary sires Chamossaire and Busted throughout their entire stud careers, securing its legacy as a trusted name in boarding, quarantine, and consigning.

For decades, the stud was lovingly overseen by Stanhope Joel’s daughter, Dana Brudenell-Bruce, ensuring continuity and care that has become synonymous with the Snailwell name.

Snailwell Stud is more than a stud farm — it's a living part of Newmarket’s rich tapestry. Situated between the charming village of Snailwell and the A14, and accessed via elegant wrought iron gates on Short Road, the estate boasts a grand principal house, ample staff accommodation, and meticulously arranged outbuildings — all set within a layout designed for both tradition and top-tier equine care.

Whether you're a breeder, trainer, or enthusiast, Snailwell Stud offers a rare opportunity to become part of a legacy that continues to shape the future of thoroughbred racing.
