Analyzing the statistical records, it has been found that the European contingents find it suitable to hold their feet in this event ever since the race started. Possibly due to the Breeders' Cup racing schedule - it generally takes place at the end of October or beginning of November every year - that is eventually just at the end of European Calendar. Another possibility may be the hot and humid weather condition at the Florida or Southern California Breeders' Cup sites.
