Danerys Targaryen Aegon VI (not to be confused with Young Griff*) Jon Snow

The prophesy from the House of the Undying makes it very clear that Aegon and and Dany are two of the 3HotD
What's your reasoning on this?

I thought the HotU scene made it seem like Rhaegar and Elia's 2 kids were the dragon riders, but that he needed 1 more. Elia was infertile/strongly advised not to have anymore children after her first 2 kids. Therefore, we can further assume that we have more evidence that Rhaegar pursued a relationship with Lyanna and had Jon as the 3rd dragon rider.
But, if we are to believe that Aegon is real, but Rhaenys still dead, would Dany take Rhaenys' place as a rider? Therefore Dany wasn't the original of the three, but rather an "alternate" rider since Rhaenys died.

Keep in mind that that I am treating this a pure prophesy. It appears as if others may view the quoted passage above as if it were a flashback; a moment in the past depicting a conversation between Rhaegar and Elia. But I don't read it that way, rather I see this as information being transferred from Rhaegar to Dany.
Therefore, Aegon is the obvious choice, as he is named as one of the 3HotD in the prophesy.
The not-so-subtle choice is Dany, as Rhaegar shifts the conversation from his wife and speaks directly to Dany.
quote:
He looked up when he said it and his eyes met Dany, and it seemed as if he saw her standing there beyond the door.
With Rhaegar's next statement telling Dany that she is one of the 3HotD; the third being unknown. Rhaenys is simply not part of the equation. And this gets confirmed in one of GRRM's Q&A's, as he plainly states that Rhaenys is dead but would not confirm nor deny the death of Aegon.
Jon is a way more complicated; but appears to be a consensus pick as a HotD.
