City Chapel, the longshot claim by Victor Trujillo that we've been following, competed Sunday in Race 4 at Golden Gate Fields, an open $20k claimer run at a distance of eight and a half furlongs on some California grass. City Chapel (Final Odds 12.00) broke slow, hugged the rail, and had nothing for the drive. He finished fifth in the field of six, over a half dozen lengths behind the winner, Duke of Doom (2.80).
This was City Chapel's first out of the money finish since last December, when he finished fifth at the late Hollywood Park. Prior to that, the last time City Chapel had finished out of the money was back on May 31, 2013. For his efforts today City Chapel earned $400 in purse money for his connections, bringing his total earnings since joining the Trujillo barn to $70,555.
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
