Rapid Redux will go for his 20th straight win in an attempt to set a modern North American record for most consecutive victories next week at Mountaineer Park in Chester, W.Va.

The 5-year-old gelding is entered in the eighth race Monday.

Rapid Redux earned his 19th victory, by 2-3/4 lengths, on Oct. 27 at Laurel Park in Maryland, tying Horse of the Year Zenyatta and New Mexico-bred standout Peppers Pride for the modern record for consecutive wins.

Rapid Redux is trained by David Wells and will be ridden by Deshawn Parker, who last rode the gelding in a win on July 15 at Mountaineer.
