heck ya i want to see him in the bc classic. he is the best horse in the world by far and would be the best horse to run in a breeders cup race in the last 20 years or more.
almost every year the arc winner doesnt come for the bc, but a horse who ran up the track in the arc comes and either wins or runs huge in either the bc classic or the bc turf. had the arc winners all ran they would have dominated .

Arc winners have run in Breeders' Cup races but haven't won. I think Dylan Thomas ran in the Breeders' Cup in 2007. Hurricane Run, the '05 Arc winner, didn't hit the board in the Turf in 2006. Sakhee just missed to Tiznow in the Classic back in 2001. And the great Dancing Brave finished fourth in the '86 BC Turf, but might have had excuses.

There may have been other Arc winners who have come over, but I don't know off-hand.
