Are you talking about Got Country Grip, the paint?

If so, he was going for his 17th strait, (which would break the record) and was beaten by a short neck. Remington was packed.

I agree with you, Peppers Pride run is fun and in no way diminishes Cigar or Citations record or elevates hers.
Her owner and trainer just seem to be nice guys that are having fun and in no way compare her to Cigar or Citation and don't plan on taking her out of New Mexico. Seems to me they have no grandiose illusions and almost feel uncomfortable when she is compared to Cigar or Citation.
It was sad for all involved that the 2nd place horse Bossy Bush brokedown.
