The Euros didn't run poorly at GP... that is a myth that somehow continues to perpetuate. Just like in 2003 when the BC was at SA on tight 7f turf course, an extra 3,000 miles of travel to the west coast, and a 100 degree afternoon. All the euros did was sweep the Filly & Mare Turf, take first and third in the Turf and win the Mile.
