How to separate a cell array based on existing strings?

I have a cell array that is 2452x5 but it has been reduced for the purpose of this question. I would like to separate the cell array, raw, into separate matrices based on a string within rows ('VR26'). The string isn't always present in the first column, the cell array below was simplified.

raw = 

    'VR26'    [     0.0539]
    'VR26'    [     0.0015]
    'VR26'    [    14.0853]
    'VR27'    [     0.0658]
    'VR27'    [     0.0022]
    'VR27'    [    25.7290]
    'VR40'    [     0.1425]
    'VR40'    [     0.0566]
    'VR40'    [     1.7189]
    'VR40'    [     1.3351]
    'VR40'    [ 6.0185e-04]
    'VR40'    [     0.0085]
    'VR40'    [     8.6243]

Be split into...

    VR26 = 

        'VR26'    [  0.0539]
        'VR26'    [  0.0015]
        'VR26'    [ 14.0853]

raw2 = 

      'VR27'    [    0.0658]
      'VR27'    [    0.0022]
      'VR27'    [   25.7290]
      'VR40'    [    0.1425]
      'VR40'    [    0.0566]
      'VR40'    [    1.7189]
      'VR40'    [    1.3351]
      'VR40'    [6.0185e-04]
      'VR40'    [    0.0085]
      'VR40'    [    8.6243]

You can do this by using cellfun function, like:

% Sample cell array
C = [{'VR26';'VR26';'VR27';'VR40'},num2cell(rand(4,1))];

idx = cellfun(@(x) strcmp(x, 'VR26'), C(:,1));

% Extracted data (VR26)
C1 = C(idx,:);

% Others
C2 = C(~idx,:);
