Chute

In rodeo bull or bronco riding events, the animal is held in a chute, a 
confined space where the animal can't maneuver. The rider climbs down 
onto the animal, the gate is opened and they blast "out of the chute" 
into the arena.

Thus the phrase has come to be used about something new bursting out 
into public view.
