The " East Coast bias " thing is a paranoid delusion. Is there an East Coast bias when people consider Game On Dude the top Handicap horse in the Country, or is it suspended in his case? How about I'll Have Another? Bodemeister?
It's nothing but a numbers game.

In the 80s and early 90s, there most certainly was an East Coast bias, especially with year end awards.
Clearly this does not exist anymore however.
I still cannot understand Vanlandingham winning the Eclipse.
