DRF|Stevens vows to quit riding after latest injury
Quote:
“That’s it for me,” he promised. “No mas. It’s been a long time since I hurt like this, and it reminds me why I don’t do it for a living anymore. I’ve been working horses on and off since the spring. It’s how I like to get fit, and for entertainment purposes, too. But all that’s going to discontinue.
“So I’m burning all my jockey stuff,” Stevens said. “The helmets, the flack jackets, everything – then put the ashes in urns, and maybe sell them on eBay.”
