for GP to only card 1 two turn race on it's biggest day of the year is simply a joke for a major racetrack
(1) what Dunkirk does in his next start really doesn't have a huge relevance on what happened on Fl Derby day, considering it'll be in the biggest race of the year and a lot of other factors could affect the outcome. We should, obviously, track what happens to other runners that return from that card that could have possibly been hindered.

(2) i guess you haven't noticed how rare 9F+ dirt races are in general these days- while i'd love to see more, they have to write what they can fill, especially on their biggest day of the year.
