Raging Bull Colt Proletariat Rules At Second Asking at Del Mar

[Wandering Eyes]

PROLETARIAT (c, 2, Raging Bull {Fr}–Kodiak West {Ire}, by Kodiac {GB}) became the third individual winner for his freshman sire (by Dark Angel {Ire}) in an eventful 5 1/2-furlong maiden over the Del Mar turf course Friday afternoon.

The 33-10 second betting choice off a debut third behind the promising Desert Gate (Omaha Beach) over the Santa Anita main track June 13, the $50,000 Fasig-Tipton October yearling turned $200,000 OBS March juvenile broke sharply inward, impeding each of the three rivals drawn to his inside rivals to varying degrees, then exchanged bumps with favored Sendit Mo (Yaupon) soon after. Once he had his feet underneath him, the bay accelerated nicely to sit just off the speed of fellow second-time starter Arkadelphia (Halladay) as they streaked well clear of their rivals. Heads apart into the final furlong, Proletariat did slightly the better in the final stages and proved narrowly best in the finish. Sendit Mo faded from better than two furlongs out and finished last of the six.

Stewards launched a lengthy discussion of the events just after the start and in the opening eighth of a mile. They declined to disqualify Proletariat despite his antics out of the gate, but ultimately demoted third home B G Bullet (Mendelssohn) for causing interference and placed him fourth. Rich Knight (Street Sense), the 7-2 third choice, was moved up to third. A more detailed writeup will appear in Sunday's TDN. Sales history: $50,000 Ylg '24 FTKOCT; $200,000 2yo '25 OBSMAR. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1. O-Dutch Girl Holdings & Irving Ventures; B-Liberty Road Stables (KY); T-Jeff Mullins.
