Other than his stablemate there are very few milers out there and that one won the mile last year, I think Big Brown is better than that one so why doesn't he have a shot if they decided to change plans, if Curlin loses his next start, it isn't inconceivable Big Brown could win HOY with an impressive BC Mile. The europeans usually do not like travelling over to So Cal so it is anyone's guess how deep the Euro contingent will be.

1984
Won the Turf with Lashkari.

1986
Won the Mile with Last Tycoon and at least sent over Dancing Brave.

1987
1-3 in the Mile with Miesque and Sonic Lady. Trempolino a close second in the Turf.

1993
Didn't win either race but 5 of 13 in the Mile were Euros and 6 of 14 in the Turf.

1997
1-3 in the Mile and a close second in the Turf.

2003
Six Perfections won the Mile, they went 1-3 in the Turf and 1-2-3-4 in the F/M turf.

I always hear that the Euros don't like shipping to Southern Cali but they seem to always do so and always do well. They've won seven of the 13 grass races in Southern Cali.
