Trainers Jorge Navarro & Jason Servis are caught on a wiretap discussing drugs they used on horses.

Apparently their doping was extensive involving other trainers & vets.

Oh man, this could be widespread too.

Quite a few harness trainers caught.

Surick, Oakes, Banca, Dane, and more.

I'm really disappointed in the number of veterinarians involved. Usually vets choose this career because they love animals.

Now they have ruined everything they worked hard for in their lives.

Banca doesn't surprise me at all...he's always been shady

At Gulfstream from December 2018 through March 2019 meet, Servis won @ a 45% clip & took the trainer honors. In the following meet @ GP, Navarro won the trainer honor for most wins.

We are known for our Florida juice but this was ridiculous.
