Wouldn't European sprinters rank behind US, Aussie and possibly Asian sprinters?

In terms of what?

On dirt - it's a complete joke how superior American sprinters are to the rest of the world.

Turf sprinting was largely ignored here until very recently - but I'd bet we're probably better than Europe at that. Especially 2-year-old turf sprinting. In terms of producing horses who are fast as fucl< and precocious as fucl< ... no one can come close to America.
