I agree with what you say. A blue blooded grade 1 winner is a blue blooded grade 1 winner. The only race that really makes a HUGE difference is the KYD anyway.

However, if the pedigree on each respective horse were identical, I would agree that the horse winning the east coast races would get more attention and a higher fee.
