The Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner displayed his trademark calm Monday afternoon as he was led from his trailer to Barn 2 with more than two dozen cameras following him.

Trainer Rick Dutrow Jr. says he believes the horse is still very fresh after winning the first two legs of the Triple Crown. The Belmont Stakes will be run June 7.
