There's a cornucopia of wisdom in that little sentence ... especially the "international" part.

Here's a question I'd like to see answered ...

How did The Blood-Horse panel include Phar Lap on the list of 20th Century American greats ... off a single race in Mexico ... but exclude Whisk Broom ... who won the three most difficult races then run in America ... packing weight as high as 139 pounds ... in his three races here?
