Peppers Pride runs to record 19th straight victory

.
Peppers Pride earned a record 19th consecutive victory in as many career starts with an expansive five and three-quarter lengths win at Sunland Park racetrack today. Racing as the 4-5 favorite, Peppers Pride placed her unblemished 18-race streak on the line in the 6 furlong stakes race for New Mexico-bred fillies and mares. Under jockey Carlos Madeira, the 5-year-old mare responded with a bold move passing the quarter mile marker. The big favorite made up over 5-lengths on the front running Negotiablafections. She holds the North American Thoroughbred record for consecutive wins.
