$850,000 Russian Revolution Filly Sets New Benchmark for Her Sire

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday April 5

Exciting young Newgate sire Russian Revolution is the leading first season sire in Australia courtesy of flying 2YO’s Revolutionary Miss, Rise of the Masses and Russian Conquest and his very first yearling offered at Inglis Easter this year set a new benchmark for her sire when selling for $850,000.

The most expensive yearling by her sire Russian Revolution, this half-sister to Invincibella sells for $850,000.

Consigned by Sledmere Stud, the well related filly was bought by Dermot Farrington Bloodstock Pty Ltd.

She is a half-sister to Group I winner Invincibella, Group III winner Secret Blaze and stakes-winner Extreme Flight being the seventh foal of unraced Galileo blue hen Abscond.

Bred by Andrew Grant-Taylor, the filly has tremendous residual value as her half-sister Invincibella was sold for $1.3million to Tom Magnier at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale in 2020 and is getting every chance at Coolmore, producing a filly by Justify (USA) last spring. Invincibella is now in foal  to Wootton Bassett (GB).

Her dam Abscond produced a filly by Invincibella’s sire I Am Invincible last spring and is back in foal to him again.
