Anton,
 
I am not expert but as experts can tell you it is sometimes impossible to distinguish a snipe sp. unless you got it in hand...
 
I would put my money on fantail juvenile. The tail projects quite a lot beyond the tertials, the bill is rather longer than I would expect on Pintail, and yes, the loral line is rather thick, supporting fantail.
 
Hope this helps
