Posted by: admin : Category: Horse racing news
Retired Hall of Fame jockey Gary Stevens is opening his own racing stable.
It will be based at Santa Anita.
This is something Ive wanted to do for a long time, and things finally fell into place, said Stevens, who also works as an analyst for NBC Sports and HRTV. Were starting out with several nice horses and looking forward to slowly building up the stable.
Helping Stevens will be his son, T.C., who worked for Ashford Stud for two years and other stables in California and Florida.
Stevens retired in 2005 with more than 5,000 victories, including three Kentucky Derby wins. He later co-starred in the movie Seabiscuit.
