The race will probably be for ages 4 and up - and even if it wasn't - no one is going to run a top American 3yo against the worlds best at 10 furlongs in March.

$12 million will make people do some crazy things. Maybe a top contender like a War Pass, Big Brown or Pyro wouldn't be sent over. But if I've got a horse like Massive Drama that I'm sending over for a $2 million race at 9f, I might be tempted to consider a $12 million race a furlong longer. I don't know what the scale of weights is over there but if it's big enough, it might be something to consider. At least with some fringe contenders.
