Obviosuly you have some love affair with Gomez. What exactly does "big wins" have to do with who is a better rider? One guy wins a ton of races, one guy doesn't. Dominguez rides in a much tougher colony in NY then what Gomez competes against in horrible So-Cal. Winning the "big races" is such a cop out in this discussion. It's like if a horse wins The Dubai Classic and gets a huge check, is that horse better than a horse with less earnings but more wins? Not necessarily.
Stick to talking about how pretty horse colors are. Leave the actual racing discussions to people who have a clue.
