But neither of them stand a chance in their next start.

The Florida Derby is a million-dollar, G1 race. I would say that is fairly important, so your suggestion that it doesn't matter at all (since you said the Kentucky Derby is "all that matters right now") seems odd.
Your opinion regarding whether or not these horses are going to win their races is what truly doesn't matter at all. The fact that they are entered in these races could potentially change the nature of the races, even if they don't win. Also, they don't have to win the races to get the graded earnings required to enter the "all-important" Kentucky Derby.
