About
Russian Benefits is a 6yo bay mare from Australia, trained by Michael Mehegan in Mornington. By Russian Revolution out of Bliss Street, she has captured two victories to date. Her most notable triumph came on 13 June 2022 at Mornington in the $60,000 Super Vobis 2‑y‑o Hcp. Punters have found her to be a profitable runner; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 100% return on investment.
