I was just pointing out that debuting in June at five furlongs has led to a derby winner in 3 of the last 14 years. So it would appear that sometimes races in June do have Derby implications and these horses are not too fragile.
Earlier in the thread people implied that it was ridiculous to think about the derby in June because Derby winners never debut so early. It does happen.
