Peppers Pride makes me nostalgic for Hallowed Dreams.
It's amusing to see a horse go 17-for-17 when they parlay a perfect trip into a 1.75 length margin of victory at level weight over a filly who has run Beyers of 73, 73, and 60 in her 3 most recent starts...and was beaten at Ruidoso Downs last time out.
Hallowed Dreams won her first 16 races to start her career - and 23 of her first 24 - she ran 10 triple digit Beyers - including a top of 111.
I remember some mocking her because they kept her in the state of La - the horses who were finishing last in those races could have probably trounced Pepper's Pride.
