Here are the undefeated Kentucky Derby winners:
Big Brown (2008), Barbaro (2006), Smarty Jones (2004), Seattle Slew (1977), Majestic Prince (1969), Morvich (1922) and the filly Regret (1915).
So, other than Barbaro, every undefeated KD winner who ran in the Preakness won it (neither Morvich nor Regret ran in it, though fun trivia: in 1922 the KD and Preakness were run on the same day and in 1915, while Regret didn't run in the Preakness, a different filly did and won, making it the only year fillies won the majority of the TC races).
