Garrett Gomez, who won two races at the Breeders’ Cup World Championships on Saturday at Monmouth Park, was named the 2007 recipient of the Bill Shoemaker Award.

The award, established in 2003, is presented annually to the outstanding Breeders’ Cup jockey and is voted on by the international media covering the event. Gomez also earned the award in 2005.

Garrett rode Indian Blessing to victory in the Grey Goose Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1) and Midnight Lute to a win in the TVG Breeders’ Cup Sprint (G1). He also finished third aboard Octave in the Emirates Airline Breeders’ Cup Distaff (G1).

The two victories increased Gomez’s Breeders’ Cup total to four. His mounts have earned $7,047,750, 13th-best of all time.

Gomez was presented the Shoemaker Award during the ESPN telecast of the Breeders’ Cup on Saturday.

Previous Shoemaker Award winners are Alex Solis in 2003 at Santa Anita Park, John Velazquez in 2004 at Lone Star Park, and Frankie Dettori in 2006 at Churchill Downs.
