Can't wait for Monmouth to give away all that money and still watch Levine and Servis win 80% of the races.

Really smart move by Gomez. It'll be interesting if any other top jocks follow.

John Valezques' agent, Cordero said the SAME thing at the beginning of the MON meet...and WHERE did Valezquez race...NYRA.


Maybe Gomez doesn't want to compete with NY jockeys...he wasn't the "star" at Saratoga.

He still had at least 3 Grade 1 wins at the best meet in the US.

I was able to speak off hand with Gomez in July, and I asked him how he enjoyed the meet so far. He said, while he loved the area and had high hopes for the meet to go on, his comments were basically a 5,000 claimer is a 5,000 claimer regardless of the purse, so he spends more time in the jockeys room than riding.
