I appreciate the banter.
Remember one thing about big hype european horses, they often run in small fields, aided by rabbits and will often only race when the "ground is suitable". That doesnt mean they all do it but cupcake city is often in effect. The funny thing is that we used to look down on the Euros because they would hype a horse off of one big win like it was the second coming of Mill Reef and now we do the same thing over here (see Big Brown)
