I couldn't care less about who wins more money, or more races, and they're both good riders, BUT, don't use the number of rides Prado has as some defense of Gomez being better ( maybe he is...who cares ). Prado rides too many horses, that's always been a problem of his, and if anything it detracts from his overall earnings as crazy as that sounds. Have you ever taken a good look at some of the horses he rides? It's ABSURD.

Anyway, carry on. But remember, Gomez only won this title because Johnny got hurt. Period. He's probably a better rider than Johnny, though who cares as they're both good, but he would never have won this thing if not for the misfortune of another.

But, then again, Prado benefited from Mig's misfortune about seven years ago.
