Off the top of my head, Mane Minister certainly fits the bill...there's one.
Here's the list I think the last 20 or so years....
Mine That Bird
Curlin
Afleet Alex
Smarty Jones
Funny Cide
Charismatic
Real Quiet
Victory Gallop
Silver Charm
Free House
Thunder Gulch
Go For Gin
Mane Minister
Sunday Silence
Easy Goer
Risen Star
Of those, I think Mane Minister is the only one you could for certain say is worse than MTB. Maybe Go For Gin?? But at this point through the Belmont, I don't think you can claim that one even. So your point is well taken...the last 21 years of those placing in all 3 TC races, I think you can find only 1 worse than MTB to this point.
