COMMENTS AND PROSPECT:
RUSSIAN REVOLUTION was owned by CHC and trained by Peter & Paul Snowden with 7 wins in 11 starts, winning distance from 1000M to 1200M. He remained unbeaten on his first four attempts until finished 4th in Coolmore Stud Stakes, then he denied REDZEL in The Galaxy with Kerrin McEvoy on board. After landed Oakleigh Plate in February 2018 under Mark Zahra, the son of SNITZEL and two G1 champion joined the stallion roster of Newgate Farm with 9 black type contests winners. REVOLUTIONARY MISS who captured Blue Diamond Prelude (Fillies) and Pago Pago Stakes winner RISE OF THE MASSES are his representative. His service fee in 2023 is AUD$ 88,000.
GLORY ELITE was sold at AUD$ 150,000 as a yearling. His dam THE KING’S WIDOW won over 800M while his full-sister MADAME ROMANOV won over 1000M. Most same sire runners prefer 1400M or under in distance. The bay gelding was found right hind tibial bone injury in June 2023 that put him sidelined for a while. GLORY ELITE should be most effective in sprint events and able to handle Happy Valley.
