City Chapel, the longshot claim that we've been following, made it three Wins in a row for Owner / Trainer Victor Trujillo Saturday; but that's not all. City Chapel (Final Odds 12.90) not only "stubbornly lasted" (in the words of the chart caller) to cross the wire a half length in front of Dewrag (12.60), but he also set a new track record for Los Alamitos Race Course, covering the seven furlongs in 1:21.78. Not too shabby for a horse that was claimed for $4k out of a race in which he went to post at Final Odds of over 29-1.
The Win Saturday was worth $16,200 to the connections of City Chapel, thus bringing his total earning for the Trujillo barn since being claimed for $4,000 to over $100k; $109,605 to be exact.
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
