Ann get a grip and please feel free to think that Group 1 Brazilian based talent could be remotely competitive in 85% of US Graded 1/2 stakes.. You have seen a HANDFUL of SA based horses to come to the US and be successful.. And Yes I am well aware of Paseana, Bayoka, Invasor, and the other half a dozen or so animals that came her and succeeded.. they just don't have the stock in Brazil...and again if you don't know this it isnt my problem!
