Fifth Winner for Russian Revolution

Tara Madgwick - Saturday February 19

Russian Revolution added another debut winner to his tally when Fission proved too strong at Bendigo on Saturday for Extreme Choice colt Prado, who started a short priced favourite.

Trained by Robbie Griffiths and Matt de Kock, Fission powered clear to win the 1000m maiden by a length and a quarter.
 



Fission was retained to race by Gleneagles Stud and is a half-brother to Group III winner Defcon being the fifth winner from five foals to race from good producer Nuclear Force.
