I wouldn't wager on it, but my guess would be that as soon as Johnny V is healthly he regains all the mounts. There will most likely be a transition period of some type, not an abrupt push of Gomez out of town.
JV is the better, more consisent rider in my opinion and I believe that there is a bond of loyalty between he and Pletcher. I just feel that the gap in ability between the two riders isn't as large as you were claiming.
