About

Russian To The Bar is a 5yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Luke Fernie at Ascot. He is by Russian Revolution out of Rosie Rocket. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $327,720, he is considered a horse of above‑average class. On 2 Mar 2024 at Ascot, ridden by Chris Parnham, he captured his biggest victory to date in the $125,000 Open Set Weight With Penalties, beating A Lot Of Good Men. Over his career he has been a rewarding runner for bettors; backing him from the start would have yielded a 39% return on investment.
