Paragraph 25k of Count I of the indictment recites a telephone conversation on May 29, 2019 between Navarro and unidentified "operators" of a horse-racing stable in California, regarding the performance of a horse named Nanoosh. (These guys apparently never learned to stay off the phones and to not put anything in writing .. . brilliant!) One of the operators asks whether the horse was "getting all the @#$%& ... is this horse jacked out?" The owners of the horse at that moment were Rockingham Ranch, Zayat Stables, LLC and David Bernsen, LLC. Ahmad Zayat needs no introduction. The other two mentioned were the owners of Stormy Liberal, hero of the 2018 BC turf sprint, running a 7+ (not a typo) point new top that day and earning a negative 5 1/4 in the process. Hay, oats and water, my friends, I'm sure. There are plenty of nervous trainers, owners and vets lawyering up today.
