So, Americain is being sent back to France, not so much in disgrace but in his own best interests. Let's face it, he hasn't done very well in Australia since his tremendous 2010 Melbourne Cup success. It'll be better for him back on the more relaxed racing atmosphere in France - and back with his former trainer. Hindsight says he should have gone back to France immediately after his Cup run last November. Congratulations to the stayer's connections for finally making the right decision.
