Stuff like that happens sometimes. Unless you go 6 wide in every race, you will occasioanlly get into trouble. It doesn' matter how good the jockey is, it will still happen ocassionally. It happens far less to the good jockeys than the bad jockeys. When was the last time Gomez got into that kind of trouble? I bet it hasn't happened in months. I'll take Gomez every time over anyone else. He'll blow one every few months, but he more than makes up for it with all of his great rides. He's one of the only guys that can move a horse way up.
