Look, if Nick Zito had kept Commentator running against straight New York breds for his first 17 races - or John Service had kept Smarty Jones running against Pennsylvania breds for his first 17 races - I would agree that it would be a crime against horse racing because those horses had posted monster figures in dynamite individual performances at the state bred level.
If Peppers Pride had run against Indyanne and Wild Gams yesterday - I think the only serious question would have been whether she would be beaten 12 lengths or 25 lengths.
