Nice races?!? Are you really that ignorant? Newsflash - most owners across the Atlantic don't care about the Breeders' Cup; they care about winning the Arc, or the Abbaye, or the Moulin, which have pretty good purses, too. If they come to the BC, it is usually as an afterthought, or as a means of redemption for a poor run (didn't win the prestige race, go for the cash). Sometimes a sportsman sends his/her top-class horse to run, but previous experience has shown that which horses adapt to US conditions is a bit of a lottery and some don't care to take the chance since it cannot improve the horses' standing.
