Stevens may have made his name out west but is a familiar face on the Triple Crown circuit. His victories in the Kentucky Derby began in 1988 aboard Winning Colors which he credits as his most exciting win - This was followed with victories by Thunder Gulch in 1995, and Silver Charm in 1997.

In 1995, Gary won the first and last legs of the series with Thunder Gulch, trained by D. Wayne Lukas. Thunder Gulch finished third in the Preakness.

In 1998 Real Quiet won the Derby and the Preakness and looked to have the Crown wrapped up when Kent Desormeaux had him in front by five lengths in the stretch of the Belmont Stakes. And then along came Gary. In one of the greatest rides in history, Stevens and Victory Gallop caught Real Quiet by a nose to win the mile-and-a-half Test of the Champion.

Has won eight Breeders' Cup races from 86 mounts: the 2000 Mile with War Chant, 1999 Juvenile with Anees and the 1998 Distaff on Escena and Juvenile Fillies on Silverbulletday, 1996 Mile on Da Hoss, 1994 Distaff on One Dreamer, 1993 Juvenile on Brocco and 1990 Turf on In the Wings (GB).

He earned national money titles in 1990 and 1998.  He also ranked among top 10 money winners from 1985-99 and in 2001.
