The courses in Europe for Group 1's are typically far superior to ours. The turns are smoother, the stretches are longer and you can land a 757 on quite a few of the courses. Less chance of traffic trouble which greatly reduces risk of injury.
Some turf courses in America are dangerous. Especially during a drought. Another disadvantage American turf runners have is the sheer panic of precipitation. This was abused habitually with tracks that had synthetic. Can't get any consistency when turf courses in America are treated like a preservation site.

Found ended up second today. A really great day of racing over in England.
