career for Navarro in 2019 for owners Rockingham
Ranch, Zayat Stables, and David Bernsen. Twice the
horse was unplaced, and once he ran third.
Navarro admitted at the hearing that the scheme
included administration of various adulterated and
misbranded performance-enhancing drugs to the
sprinter X Y Jet, including a substance he referred to
as "monkey," to "enhance his performance" in a Feb.
13, 2019, race at Gulfstream Park and in the Dubai
Golden Shaheen Sponsored by Gulf News (G1) in
March 2019 at Meydan.
The indictment charged the trainer personally
administered the drugs while in Dubai.
X Y Jet was campaigned by Gelfenstein Farm
throughout his 26-race career and Rockingham Ranch
took part ownership of the horse in 2016. Bernsen
assumed a 10% interest of X Y Jet in early December 2019
as part of a partial restructuring and dispersal of horses
he owned in partnership with Rockingham Ranch
Think these owners have a few questions to answer
