If it's 7 Euro's VS 7 Americans on synthetic you'd notice their dominance more. Instead, - it's more like 10 American horses VS 2.5 Euro's - and the Euro's have to fly halfway around the world to Santa Anita for the race.

How do you think Conduit would have done if he would have run in the BC Brown Turf instead of the BC Green Turf the last two years?
2nd last year and probably 3rd the year before. And all we're talking about is Zenyatta. 1/2 to 2/3's of US horses didn't have a shot to begin with...
