You are correct, because of the other horses' accomplishments after the triple crown. SJ and Barbaro were never able to race after the Triple Crown, so who knows.
Still if you ever see a list naming the undefeated winners of the K Derby, those are the 6 horses on the list. SJ and Barbaro accomplished what they did to deserve being on that list.
Undefeated Derby Winners
2006: Barbaro (6-0)
2004: Smarty Jones (7-0)
1977: Seattle Slew (7-0)
1969: Majestic Prince (8-0)
1922: Morvich (12-0)
