Preakness a homecoming for Big Brown crew
Heavy overnight rain in Louisville prevented Kentucky Derby winner Big Brown from galloping Thursday at Churchill Downs. Instead, the undefeated colt jogged for the second consecutive morning for exercise rider Michelle Nevin. Big Brown is scheduled to arrive at Baltimore-Washington International Airport on Wednesday at 5:45 p.m., shortly after the draw for the 133rd Preakness Stakes is staged at the ESPN Zone in downtown Baltimore.
