Russian Revolution x Za Zi Ba 2024 Gelding
Trainer: Robbie Griffiths (Cranbourne)
$2,150 per 2.5% Share

We couldn’t be happier to present our newest offering to our loyal owners and subscribers. We purchased this gelding at the Inglis Ready2Race Sale, a sale that has produced numerous Group 1 and stakes winners in recent years.

The Ready2Race Sale is unique, as it features two-year-olds that have already been educated, allowing buyers to assess how each horse moves in a public breeze-up before the auction.

This year, we compared all 256 horses catalogued, assessing their breeze-up footage and times, as well as their conformation and pedigrees, to compile our inspection list.

From there, we carefully inspected the horses in person and narrowed down our selections.

Our number one target was this Russian Revolution gelding, and we’re delighted to have secured him.

He comes from the outstanding family that produced Champion Sire Snitzel, and he has the powerful, muscular build so typical of Russian Revolution’s progeny. Even in his breeze-up, he appeared to have plenty left in reserve, and we’re excited to see how he develops. We would be delighted if you would consider joining us in racing him.

From the video, he galloped through to the line with a focused, well-balanced action while his rider barely asked him for an effort. His stride still appeared to have plenty in reserve, and he showed real room for improvement.

It is a common misconception that, when attending a breeze-up sale, buyers should focus on the horses with the fastest times. We look for horses with nice actions that appear focused on their work and have plenty of improvement to come as they continue to develop and progress.

Sire: Russian Revolution

Russian Revolution won seven races from his 11 career starts, including both of his starts as a juvenile. He was raced by the formidable Newgate / China Horse Club Colts' Syndicate and consistently competed against the best.

He won two Group 1 races amongst a host of Stakes wins, beating Redzel in The Galaxy (1100m) before returning the following autumn to win the Oakleigh Plate, defeating Hellbent in what would be his final start.

He began his career in the breeding barn with the same momentum he showed at the end of his racing career. He was crowned Champion First Season Sire in 2021–22, with headline horses such as Revolutionary Girl narrowly beaten in the Blue Diamond Stakes and Russian Conquest finishing a close second in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic. He backed this up the following season by being crowned Champion Second Season Sire.

To date, he has sired 447 runners for 306 winners, including 15 stakes winners and three Group 1 winners.

His male progeny average around $120,000 in earnings per runner. This is headlined by the Group 1 winners Communist (Randwick Guineas) and Libertad (Winterbottom Stakes). Libertad, like our horse, is a graduate of the Inglis Ready2Race Sale.

He is a classic example of an underrated sire with consistently strong statistics. His stakes-winners-to-runners strike rate among his male progeny is around 5%, comparable with those of leading sires.

Dam: Za Zi Ba (by All Too Hard)

Za Zi Ba won four races over 1100m and 1200m, including one as a two-year-old, and earned around $190,000. She finished third in the Listed Darby Munro Stakes and fourth in the Listed Fireball Stakes, demonstrating her ability to compete against stakes-class horses.

As a broodmare, both of her foals to race are winners. Her second foal, King of Pop (by Farnan), won twice as a two-year-old, including the Group 3 Black Opal Stakes, and finished second in the Group 3 Kindergarten Stakes. This is her third foal.

Her younger half-brothers include Group 1 Epsom Handicap winner Rediener, who earned $2.2 million, as well as the Listed winner Rathlin.

Za Zi Ba’s dam, Wiener, is an outstanding broodmare who produced ten winners from ten runners. She is a half-sister to Snitzel. This family recently produced Group 1 Thousand Guineas winner Ole Dancer, and it remains one of Australia’s most vibrant families.

Za Zi Ba’s sire, All Too Hard, is a half-brother to the unbeaten Champion Mare Black Caviar. He won four Group 1 races himself, including the Caulfield Guineas, and as a broodmare sire, he is responsible for horses such as Sass Appeal, Cristal Clear and Tremonti.

Pedigree

The dam’s best progeny, King of Pop, is from the Danehill sire-line, so the thinking behind this mating is very similar.

In addition, Russian Revolution is by Snitzel. Snitzel’s dam, Snippets’ Lass, is also this gelding’s third dam, meaning he carries a 3x3 cross of Snippets’ Lass. This is known as the Rasmussen Factor, which occurs when a horse’s pedigree features repeated crosses of a prominent female ancestor. It is a highly regarded approach in thoroughbred breeding. Combined with this, through his broodmare sire All Too Hard, he brings in the famed Black Caviar family.

It is a well-thought-out mating that combines speed and stamina.

Breeze-Up Assessment

He breezed on the turf at Wangaratta (Good 4) and recorded a time of 10.98 seconds.

His rider, Arron Lynch, is a talented jumps jockey who is heavier than most of the other breeze-up riders. His style is not to push horses but to let them run within themselves. As a result, our own analysis showed that every horse he rode during the Wangaratta session recorded a time towards the slower end of the field.

We also found that among the five horses he rode, this gelding recorded the fastest time.

Because he was not ridden out hard, his stride did not appear to open up fully. We believe this 10.98-second time was recorded with plenty still in hand, and we are excited to see how much further he can stretch out once he is asked to extend and reaches his full stride.

The Gelding

What really attracted us to this horse is his powerful, muscular frame combined with a very compact build. He isn’t overly gross but carries plenty of strength, with his well-developed hindquarters standing out in particular. At the walk, he tracks up well behind, and there is no stiffness in his shoulder movement.

He was foaled on 30 August, making him an early-season foal. He has already been educated and completed his breeze-up, so we hope to see him performing early in his two-year-old season.

Given the profile of his sire’s progeny and his dam’s racing record, we expect him to be best suited to distances of around 1000m to 1400m initially.

He is eligible for Victoria’s VOBIS Silver and the BOBS scheme. As a graduate of an Inglis sale, he is also eligible for the lucrative Inglis Race Series.

ザジバの24 セン馬(父ロシアンレボリューション)

調教師ロビー・グリフィス(クランボーン)

想定募集価格(一口2.5%)2,150豪ドル

(馬代金、保険、各種ボーナス/ レースシリーズ登録料、26年10月31日までの預託料込み)

※本馬はミニ口 (0.5%共有)対象馬となります(ミニ口価格$430)

いかにもロシアンレボリューション産駒らしい形をした、コンパクトで非常に力強く筋肉質な馬体が魅力の牡馬。チャンピオンサイアー・スニッツェルを生んだ名牝スニペッツラスの3×3のクロスを持ち、半兄にG3勝ち馬キングオブポップがいる良血馬です。ブリーズアップでは鞍上がほとんど追わないなか、集中した良いフォームで走り切りました。ストライドにはまだ余力を残しているように見え、伸びしろを感じさせる一頭です。

父ロシアンレボリューション

現役時代は2歳時の2勝を含めて通算7勝を挙げ、G1ギャラクシーハンデキャップと、ラストランとなったG1オークレイプレートのG1を2勝しました。種牡馬入り後は2021-22年シーズンにオーストラリアの初年度リーディングサイアーとなり、これまでに出走馬447頭のうち勝ち馬306頭、ステークス勝ち馬15頭(リステッド含む)を送り出しています。

牡馬産駒の1頭あたりの平均獲得賞金は約12万ドルにのぼり、G1馬コミュニストやリベルタード(G1ウィンターボトムS)が代表産駒です。リベルタードは、本馬と同じブリーズアップセールの出身馬です。

安定して優れたスタッツを誇る、過小評価された種牡馬の典型で、特に牡馬の活躍馬が多いのが特徴。

牡馬の出走馬に対するステークス勝ち馬率は5%程度と、一流種牡馬と比べても遜色ありません。

母ザジバ(母父オールトゥーハード)

現役時代は2歳時の1勝を含めて1100mと1200mで4勝を挙げ、約19万ドルを獲得しました。リステッド競走のダービーマンローSで3着、ファイアボールSで4着に入っており、重賞級でも差のない競馬ができていた実力馬です。

繁殖入り後は、産駒2頭がいずれも勝ち上がっています。2番仔のキングオブポップ(父ファーナン)は2歳時に2勝を挙げ、G3ブラックオパールSを制したほか、G3キンダーガーテンSでも2着に入りました。本馬は母の3番仔にあたります。

母の半弟には、G1エプソムハンデキャップを勝って約220万ドルを稼いだ REDIENER や、リステッド勝ち馬の RATHLIN がいます。2代母ウィーナーは出走した10頭すべてが勝ち上がった名繁殖で、チャンピオンサイアー・スニッツェルの半妹でもあります。近年もこの牝系からG1サウザンドギニーを制したオーレダンサーが出ており、今も活力のあるオーストラリアが誇る名牝一族です。

母父のオールトゥーハードは、不敗の名牝ブラックキャビアの半弟です。自身もG1コーフィールドギニーを含むG1を4勝し、母父としてもサスアピール、クリスタルクリア、トレモンティなどを出しています。

配合

母の代表産駒のキングオブポップはデインヒル系であり、配合の趣旨は非常に似ております。

それに加えて、父ロシアンレボリューションの父はスニッツェルです。スニッツェルの母スニペッツラスは本馬の3代母でもあるため、本馬はスニペッツラスの3×3のクロスを持っています。つまり、チャンピオンサイアー・スニッツェルを生んだ名牝系が、父方と母方の両方に入っている構成です。そこに母父オールトゥーハードを通じて、ブラックキャビアの一族が加わります。スピードと底力の両方を備えた、よく考えられた配合と言えます。

ブリーズアップ評価

ワンガラッタ競馬場の芝コース(Good 4)で行われたブリーズアップの時計は10秒98でした。

この時計だけを見ると、同コースのブリーズアップの時計の中では見劣りしますが、それこそがこれほどの馬を格安で買えた理由です。

本馬に騎乗したアーロン・リンチ騎手は障害競走の騎手で、ブリーズアップに騎乗する他のライダーと比べて体重が重めです。また、無理に追わず、馬なりに近い形で走らせるのがこの騎手の特徴です。そのため、弊社の確認では、このワンガラッタのセッションで彼が騎乗した馬の時計は、全体から見るといずれもかなり遅めでした。その中で、彼が騎乗した5頭のうち最も速い時計を出したのが本馬です。

映像を見ても、他のブリーズアップの馬たちに比べるとまだ余力を残していることが分かりますし、その中で最後まで集中して走れています。まだビッチリと追われていないこともあり、ストライドがフルに伸び切っていないように感じます。我々はこの10秒98は余力を残した状態で出した時計と判断しており、追われてフルストライドに達したときに、どこまで伸びるのか楽しみな内容でした。

本馬の魅力

いかにもロシアンレボリューション産駒らしい馬体をしています。コンパクトにまとまった馬体に、非常に力強く豊富な筋肉を備えているのが最大の魅力で、特にトモの充実ぶりが目を引きます。常歩では後肢がしっかり踏み込めており、肩の動きにも硬さがありません。

8月30日生まれの早生まれで、すでに馴致を終えてブリーズアップまで経験していることから、2歳の早い時期からの活躍を期待したい一頭です。父の産駒の傾向と母の現役時代の成績を考えると、まずは1000m〜1400mあたりが主戦場になると思われます。

また、本馬はビクトリア州のボーナス制度VOBIS SilverおよびBOBSの対象馬です。さらに、Inglisのセリの出身馬として、Inglisレースシリーズの対象にもなります。
