For a brief stretch there in the late '80s-early '90s, the converses of those generalizations would have helped you nail the trifecta in a handful of Belmonts.
'89- French trained Le Voyageur runs 3rd to Easy Goer-Sunday Silence
'90- Irish trained Go And Go romps by 8 lengths over Unbridled et al
'92- English import My Memoirs splits A.P. Indy and Pine Bluff
'95- English trained Citadeed follows Thunder Gulch around the track
