It was an easy win for Peppers Pride on Saturday in a 6-furlong allowance race at Zia Park in Hobbs, N.M., as the thoroughbred put herself into the record books. She has won 17 times in as many starts, setting a modern North American record. Before Saturday, Peppers Pride shared the mark of 16 straight victories with Triple Crown winner Citation, two-time horse of the year Cigar, Mister Frisky and Hallowed Dreams. Peppers Pride has career winnings of more than $867,000 for owner Joe Allen, racing exclusively in New Mexico against state-bred females. The Associated Press
