Raging Bull impresses in Shoemaker Mile

The Chad Brown trained Raging Bull gained his second Grade 1 victory when landing the Shoemaker Mile at Santa Anita and as a result gains an automatic spot in the Breeders' Cup Mile at Keeneland in November.

The five year old was sold as a yearling at the Goffs Orby sale in 2016 as part of the Wildenstein dispersal for €90,000.

Ridden by Joel Rosario towards the back of the high quality field Racing Bull, a son of Dark Angel, made a strong move around runners on the turn into the home straight before running out an impressive winner at odds of 5/2.

Stablemate and favourite Without Parole finished third after a troubled passage while Preakness winner War Of Will came home in sixth
