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. |
yeah, that's him. i even went to remingtons site, as i thought it happened there. but i had to go to work, so i quit looking. i saw the link posted on equidaily the other day about the huge crowd they had gotten. we need more stuff like that, not less, and certainly no one at remington cared that it wasn't an 'a' list horse running for the record. no 'a' lister hangs around long enough for all that any more.
