That's what is done in Germany. Lo and behold, in the past decade German-breds have won multiple runnings of the Arc de Triomphe, the King George, and the Melbourne Cup. Kentucky Derby and Dubai World Cup winner Animal Kingdom was out of a German-bred mare.
And Germany has a minor horse racing industry relatively speaking.
