I wonder what would happen when you combine:
1) an above average intellect
2) a indefatigable work ethic
3) long term experience in the game
4) a genuine love for the game
5) a 'gambler's' understanding of the game
You probably would get a trainer that's a little bit better than that pack of NY trainers who can't quite figure out whether their horses are sprinter or routers or prefer dirt of turf; and thus spend YEARS going repeatedly from one to the other. Clearly, there's the OTHER SIDE of this.
I have no problem assuming that Levine is above average and on a hot streak.
