I don't think that anyone who looked at the allowance race would have wanted Warrior's Reward, who got an ABSOLUTELY PERFECT TRIP, back. Why, then, are we using his EXPECTED dismal performance in the TBD as a way to gauge Dunkirk?

And, Sincero was one path INSIDE of Dunkirk on the 1st turn, was probably helped by getting shuffled back at a key point on the 2nd turn, and LOST ground in the stretch run.

If I were someone who thought that Dunkirk was a horse, I'd have to ask you to come up with something a bit stronger.

In Fat Chart Land, Dunkirk has run twice and 'wiped out' the field in each case. I don't know what this means in terms of how good he actually is but it's certainly NOT a negative.
