There is a good article on Garret Gomez at
http://drf.com/news/article/80162.html
They refer to Gomez as "arguably the world's premier jockey."
He is the leading rider in the world this year with earnings of over $18 million. As I have said before, I think he is by far the best jockey in the country. I don't think its even close. I notice he has silenced the critics on this board.
