Chapel Cottage made her debut at Haydock in May 1983. Her first win came at York on her second racecourse appearance when she won the University Of York Turf Club Stakes, again ridden by Pat Eddery. IN July 1983 she won the Cherry Hinton Stakes and later that season finished third in the Lowther Stakes back at York.
Her target was the Cheveley Park Stakes, but the day before the race the filly was injured in an accident. She was having a canter when she injured her leg.
"She gave a buck and a kick and knocked her leg. She was spot on and would have won doing hand-springs. I'm as sick as a parrot. But I'll tell you one thing, Robert Sangster's the best owner in the world. He took the news like a man, and if you can stand racing you can stand anything," said Easterby.
Chapel Cottage was sold to Terry Ramsden at the end of 1983 and left the yard.
