The Lebron James analogy is a bad one. It's not as if Pepper's Pride were some kind of Kentucky bred that was dropped in New Mexico (ala Funny Cide being a NY bred) and was beating up on a bunch of inferior Lobos. She's a New Mexico bred facing similar. And dominating.
If this was a NY-bred or a Cal-bred winning 14 in a row, you wouldn't be taking this stance.

It would only be slightly better if it was a NY bred or Cal bred but I'd still feel the same way if the horse never raced in open company and was suddenly being mentioned in the same company as Citation and Cigar. Give her a chance to show what she's made of in open company. We all know she's head and shoulders above the NM breds, let's see how good she really is. That's all I'm asking.
