I think this works as a general rule in all of the races but the Sprint... In the 4 or 5 years I've been watching the World Cup, I think a US-based horse has won the Sprint every year (with the lone exception being Big City Man taking advantage of Prado completely blowing the race on Indian Blessing last year).
