“Jamen right now is going to have a suspended license,” OSRC executive director Chris Dragone told bloodhorse.com. “The stewards are drafting it up right now, and we're going to reach out to him to schedule a hearing, but his license will be suspended, and he'll be put on a 'stop list' as of the end of the day.”

Testifying on Thursday, Jan. 27, under a grant of immunity from Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil, Davidovich said he met Dr. Fishman at a sushi bar in Florida. Asked by prosecutor Anden Chow how the subject of PEDs came up, Davidovich responded: “We were talking about different things to make the horse run better.”

Davidovich said he stopped administering PEDs in 2018 after meeting Dr. Steven Allday.

The trainer raced primarily in Ohio, with 66 winners from 333 overall starters on his record, according to Equibase.

Dragone said a hearing date has not yet been set, but told the TDN Davidovich could face a lifetime ban.

“We haven't seen the transcripts (from the Fishman trial) yet,” Dragone told TDN. “But from everything I have heard and from what he said, this was blatant. This is very serious. This came out of the blue and we had no notice so far as what he was going to say in court. But when he said in court that he drugged horses we had to take action. And it's possible that he may have his license revoked and that he will be ruled off for life.”
