I wish my Mom was around to see this. Gary, Pat and Jerry were her favorites and she always picked one of the horses they were on

Nice article with an interview with Gary Stevens.

I’m wise enough to know that I’ve seen a lot of good riders throughout the country never get these sorts of opportunities. Sometimes when they are given the opportunity things don’t go well, and you have to capitalise when the opportunities come. I was able to do that last year, and that comes with the comfort zone of being happy with what I’m doing.
