Kentucky Derby winner Big Brown gallops down the stretch in preparation for the Preakness. "It went good," trainer Richard Dutrow Jr. said. "I was very happy with it. He was comfortable, cool, relaxed, galloped good. We're as happy as we can be right now. There is no way anybody can tell how their horse is going to run in two weeks. You don't have time to train 'em, breeze 'em a few times, but since he's come out of the Derby, up to this minute, I'm very, very happy with the horse. He's just done everything that you would want a horse to do coming out of a race like that. He hasn't missed an oat. He's aggressive with his gallops. It's all good. I don't know how he's going to run with the two weeks, but I'm certainly not going to dismiss him, I can tell you that."
