And who exactly are you referring to when talking about the other "horses coming out of South Florida"?
Dunkirk ran a great race against Quality Road, who obviously didn't run in the Derby. Several horses he beat in his Maiden and Allowance wins have come back to run well, including Santana Six and Warriors Reward, who won on Friday's card.
I'm not trying to be a Dunkirk apologist, but instantly attacking any horse's credibility that ran in "the mess" that was this year's Kentucky Derby is a ridiculous thing to do.

This ones for Phil ran two credible races after getting trounced by Quality Road in the FOY. I think one of them he even got moved up to first?
Like Gales said, go back and watch his trip in the Withers. He wasnt going to beat Mr Fantasy, but it would have been closer. This ones for Phil is a really nice horse...Met Mile looming?
