This board has been the subject of many posts over many years regarding drug use in this sport and those who repeatedly get away with it. Many of the posters on this subject have acknowledged the reduction or elimination of their betting handle. As Philly Wheels post suggests, today’s Navarro “ interview” was a shameful example of whitewashing by NYRA of this subject. Ms.Gaudet will never be confused with Mike Wallace or Katy Couric as a result of this interview which, of course, avoided, with tremendous effort, ever asking Navarro whether he has ever illegally used drugs or whether he was being truthful when recently caught on tape. Instead, we heard him “apologize”— after reminding us he was a leading trainer-without ever telling us what he was apologizing for. I would be curious as to the genesis of this interview- did it come from NYRA to be used as a vehicle to justify letting his horse run in the Kelso or did the request come from Navarro to let him continue to play the bettors for fools by “apologizing”.To cap off NYRA’s version of 60 Minutes, Andy Serling took pains to remind everyone that NYRA has enhanced security as an additional justification for NYRA letting Navarro run. Shameful, simply shameful. The beat goes on.
