Like I said Zieg if they are so superior then why don't they ever win the Derby over here? Because they don't want to? heck, they have basically given up trying, thats how hard it is to do.
They have a style of racing that just allows them to gallop, gallop, gallop up to a race.
They also don't really ever have to work on gate skills of a horse(which I think is pretty obvious watching the way most of them break when they come here for the BC). Over there they can just fall out of the gate and lope along early.
Its not so easy when you have to teach a horse to break fast and show speed, sometimes blazing speed, and still have the stamina to finish a 9f or 10f race.
The whole notion of how superior they are is incredible. The fact is I would expect an entire continent of trainers to produce grass horses who would beat ours more often than not because thats what they do all year long, they train and race horses for grass races. Thats what they race on over there, so thats what they focus on.
