Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
December 10, 2021 The Honorable Mary Kay Vyskocil United States District Court Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse 500 Pearl Street New York, New York 10007 Re: United States v. Jorge Navarro, S6 20 Cr. 160 (MKV) Dear Judge Vyskocil: Jorge Navarro’s case reflects failings, greed, and corruption at virtually every level of the world of professional […]
OFFENCE CONDUCT Jorge Navarro (“Navarro” or the “defendant”) earned tens of millions of dollars in purse winnings by training and racing thoroughbred horses that Navarro had “doped” using a plethora of adulterated and misbranded performance-enhancing drugs (“PEDs”), including (among others) blood builders, vasodilators, SGF-1000, baking soda “drenches,” “bleeder” pills, and other drugs not approved by […]
Throughout Navarro’s years-long conspiracy, Navarro was the critical component in a network of fraud – the individual who amplified the corruption of horse owners and encouraged the corruption of his underlings.

Here is a controversial one for you. The Victorian Stewards pinned driver Jack Laugher for improper driving on Saturday night, that improper driver being turning his right heel in the stirrups of the sulky so that his foot would make contact with his drive Magic Mike’s hind legs. In other words, they got him for […]
Now that’s what we all call a sensible Xmas present isn’t it? This ad appeared in all of Australia’s big newspapers and magazines in December 1936. Merry Christmas Dad. Here’s a gift of lung cancer to celebrate the season.
See that thing shining in the air? No, it’s not a UFO. It’s a thrown shoe in the trotters ID21 final, and it looks like Humble Ladd’s. There is no mention of it in the Stewards comments on the race results. It’s only 2 days later so the official report isn’t up yet, even though […]
A harness racing horse is suspected of being administered a prohibited substance for the second time in a year. Johnny Nevits was a late scratch at the New Zealand Metropolitan Trotting Club’s meet at Addington Raceway on Friday night. A Stipendiary Stewards report said Racing Integrity Board (RIB) investigators completed a stable inspection at the training […]
Dear Peter Profit As you may be aware, I have spent the weekend here on the island of Minjerribah with the internationally renowned human rights consultant Dr Sai-Coe, workshopping ideas for the campaign to change the name back from the colonial imposed Stradbroke Island to its traditional name, to raise the public profile of our […]
