Dunkirk\'s win puts him on Derby path
By Mike Welsch


Pletcher said that Dunkirk would likely follow 2008 Derby winner Big Brown\'s lead from last winter and go directly from his first-level allowance victory into the Grade 1 Florida Derby on March 28.

\"He\'s here, he\'s 2 for 2 over the track, and the spacing is good between races, so at the moment I\'d say the Florida Derby would be my first choice,\" Pletcher said.

  Makes sense skipping the whole poly to dirt transition ? .
