Big Brown Arrives in New York, Belmont Training Begins

May 20th, 2008

Big Brown

Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner, Big Brown, has arrived at Belmont Park in good time to get in a few good jogs, five or six healthy gallops, and one good breeze before the Belmont Stakes on June 7th. According to trainer Rick Dutrow Jr., he’s just going to take it nice and easy with the Triple Crown contender.

“Very light training,” Dutrow said. “We’re going to keep it cut and dry. Simple. There will be no pressure in the mornings. I just want to glide him into the race. I am feeling pretty confident about things. I can see that he is sharp. Sunday, he was bouncing and yesterday the same thing. He is doing good, and that makes everything so much easier. I don’t have to worry about a lot of things.”

If anybody doubted Big Brown’s strength, speed and stamina Saturday’s relatively easy win should have put those doubts to rest. Dutrow is cautious not to sound over confident in his horse, but when asked if he believed Big Brown could win the Triple Crown — he said yes.

“As long as we can keep him well within himself, we’ll have a chance,” Dutrow said. “Everybody is very excited about him, and how can you not be? It looks like he has a chance at being one of the best ever.”
