Chupp’s Crew Puts On A Clinic

Published: February 22, 2009 10:14 pm EST

After putting together a two-win performance at Woodbine Racetrack on Saturday evening, trainer Mervin Chupp one-upped himself on the Sunday afternoon

program at the Rexdale oval thanks to a trio of trips to victory lane.

Chupp, who has long been a fixture on the Illinois racing circuit, has already watched his troops pick up 12 wins this season for purse earnings in excess of $114,000 – and a great deal of that success has come during his stint in the Mega City.

The resident of Crete, IL watched Thunder Seelster (1:58) pull off a 17-1 upset in today’s sixth race, and he was right back to the winner’s circle the very next race with Cest La Vie (1:57.3). Kashitin (1:55.1) clicked in the finale giving Chupp the training triple.

Chupp, who has sent out 485 winners over the course of his career, has watched his starters haul in purse earnings in excess of $3.8 million to date.
