This latest win by Chrisanli came in the Caymanas Saturday (May 15) second, which was a three-year-old and upwards $450,000 - $400,000) claimer run at a distance of 5 ½ furlongs.
When the gates opened, it was Dane Nelson who put his mount Mother Nature in front. That episode did not last long as Tevin Foster moved on the outside to gain the ascendency for the Ryan Williams trained Chrisanli.
Turning into the straight Chrisanli and Foster were once again challenged by Mother Nature, but the winner had more than enough to win by 3 ½ lengths. Mother Nature was second and Awesome Aviator third.
