Default Gary Stevens Should Stick To Acting

Maybe training is a bit above his pay grade.

His homoerotic bonding with Mike Smith wasn't acting.

Stevens is on fire.

1-for-18 with zero 2nd's ... his only winner was a claimer who has run progressively worse with each start under his training.

Nah, what you need to do is set up a drinking game. Like when Tom Durkin calls a race with RA, every time he says "Rachel Alexander" do a shot. Now I don't get to see Gary reading the names on air unless he does network so maybe it's not advisable. Wouldn't wanna black out before they finish the post parade.

IMHO it's a little to soon to be saying the guy is a bad trainer. I'm not going to pass judement yet.

A Hall of Fame jockey, Stevens said the expansion of NBC to show several Kentucky Derby prep races and his acquisition of a theatrical role in a racing-themed series that will begin on HBO later this year led to his decision.

I guess 1 for 22 had nothing to do with this decision.
