From the renown King Ranch where legendary Kineno vaqueros and several descendants of Captain King who have made generations of top quality horses a priority on the King Ranch, comes Peppy San Badger.

OLD SORREL, was purchased in 1915 by Bob Kleberg, Jr., King's grandson, a colt who became the foundation sire that made King Ranch famous as a breeder of champion quarter horses. The American Quarter Horse Association (AQHA) founded in 1941 grand champion went to King Ranch's WIMPY, a grandson of OLD SORREL. It is the same outstanding qualities found in WIMPY that were passed on to MR. SAN PEPPY and PEPPY SAN BADGER (Little Peppy), King Ranch cutting horse champions.

A two-time National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) Open World Champion in 1974 and 1976, MR SAN PEPPY also won the AWHA World Cutting Champtionship in 1976, the first horse to ever win both title simultaneously. In 1978, he became the first horse to ever win over $100,000 in open cutting competition. The Pinnacle of his career happened in 1974, when he became the youngest horse to ever be inducted into the NCHA Hall of Fame.
