Tim you should watch races more closely before you knock the opinion of guys who do. Its no coincidence that everyone who knocks the guy knocks his lack of consistency. Race 5 today was an absolute nightmare stupidly executed ride by Gomez and just another example of how he makes very dumb mental mistakes day after day. Broke great from a bad post and angled over to get a great spot. Tracking in about 5th and clear on teh outside. Grabs his mount and allows not one, but three horses make a move(when he could have pushed the button and made the move the eventual winner made) and get himself hopelessly trapped. Turns a horse with tactical speed into a hopelessly blocked closer and has to jerk her between traffic with too much to do. Just an embarassingly stupid ride. WHy bother breaking and getting a great spot if you are just gonna sit there and let yourself get locked in and shuffled back to 10th. This guy gives some of the dumbest rides you ever saw. I will give you the link Tim so you can watch the replay if you care to. But we aren't making this stuff up, he gives some torturous rides.
