He placed behind some very handy horses in his time including behind the Group 3 Black Opal winner Kalashnikov when beating only 0.4 length as well as placing behind multiple Group and Stakes place horses such as Pippali and Rubamos. His sire Kermadec was a dual G1-winning racehorse and now a Classic sire.

Raoul’s dam Rosa Raisa herself was placed in France had 3 years old and has an impressive record with 7 runners to the track for 5 winners including the $315k earner Raising Dubai.
Raoul was raced by Godolphin and comes from a royal blue family that stems back to Multiple Group 1 winner Campanologist who won Group races in four different countries across the world. When presented for sale Raoul was a lightly raced progressive type with plenty of upside and great form lines. As a type he had a great deep girth, good length and a great hip. He was a good mover and quiet light on his feet. He is trained by Chris Anderson in the state of the art facilities at Eagle Farm, Brisbane.
