Velazquez. Gomez knew that Rags was under consideration for the race and still signed on the dotted line to ride Hard Spun. Sucks for him.

Johnny took her and Pletcher to the promised land, he gets the mount from now on.

I'm pretty sure Pletcher told him and JV to look for other mounts because he wasn't sure what he wanted them to do and didn't want them to be without mounts if he decided against running. Gomez was offered the mount on Rags first but Porter wouldn't let him off Hard Spun. Slew's Tizzy's connections were more understanding so JV was able to get on Rags. Pletcher told Gomez's agent that if Rags won, Johnny would keep her so that's what's happening . . . Makes sense. . .

When Pletcher announced Rags was entered, Gomez's agent tried to get him off of Hard Spun.....Jones said no and that was it....which imo was a totally idiotic move on Jones part.....the last thing I want riding my horse in any race is a jock that doesn't want to be on it...

But how do you punish Gomez for taking another ride. Or for the fact that Jones didnt let him off HS? How is that his fault? I think its pretty sh*tty, if u ask me. umm not that they did, just adding my 2 cents.
