Either one would do just fine for mowing. But to add a snow blower and plow the 12hp motor would be preferable to the 7hp motor. The 7 could do it, but probably not as easy.
For what you are wanting I would say the 126. I have no experience with a snow blower, but I think most guys with a manual prefer a creeper gear to use with the snow blower. I am sure some of the others will have some good input on this.
