In the "Course Camarguaise", the "raseteurs" challange the bulls and try to take off decorations (rosettes, tassels, ribbons) hanging from their horns. The "raset" technique  involves going towards the bull and getting as close to its head as possible in order to grab the decorations using a hook and then get away  as quickly as possible by running run to the barrier followed by the animal and hiding behind the boards.

A bull race lasts 15 minutes and the bull participates in many races during its career (5-8 years).
