RAGING BULL (FR) (c, 3, Dark Angel {Ire}–Rosa Bonheur {SP-Fr}, by Mr. Greeley) continued a lights-out run for trainer Chad Brown at the Keeneland meet with a rallying debut tally on the grass. Showing a steady worktab at Palm Meadows before finishing off preparations with an easy half-mile on the local dirt in :49 flat (33/86) Apr. 6, the bay broke about two lengths slowly as the narrow 29-10 third choice before darting over to the rail into the clubhouse turn. Traveling comfortably in sixth behind fractions of :24.28 and :48.80, he advanced four wide on the latter half of the far bend, swept to the lead just outside the sixteenth pole and edged clear to score by two lengths in hand over First Spring (Spring At Last). The winner's second dam is MGSW Rolly Polly (Ire) (Mukaddamah). He has a juvenile half-brother by Pivotal (GB) named Rapture (Fr) and a yearling Siyouni (Fr) half-sister named Siyoubaby (Ire).
