I agree that the Euro's owe us nothing as far as supporting our races. The Arc is on the short list of the world's greatest races and winning that is much more desireable than winning the BC Turf. Also, there has to be reasons why no Arc winner has ever come over and won the BC. The Arc is a race that you usually have to be trained to the max in order to win it and having your horse set for that THEN shipping across the ocean as an afterthought to try to win another tough race is very hard to do.

Now, I do agree with Sniper that IF he was going to send her over, the Classic might be the spot since winning the Turf wouldn't mean as much after winning the Arc. But the fact that he doesn't care too much about the BC is pretty clear.
If you want to be technical, its His Highness The Aga Khan. Hence, HH Aga Khan.
