So yes, in a perfect world every track could simply not accept his entries and that's it, no due process needed. Since the penalty came from the stewards and is being referred to the racing commission, that is why I mentioned it.
As an aside, if you decide to play any big money in a casino (esp Vegas), shop around. They stand to make a risk free profit on you, so use it to your advantage for rooms and F&B

Agree. But here is the reality of this mess, if the operators feel his conduct is detrimental to others he can be removed from the premises. At this point the uncertainty of the future of racing at MP should be something Dennis is more concerned about and keeping Navarro around to "fill" races isn't going to win you any votes. A study was performed and it shows races where he was the favorite had the least amount of betting dollars on those races at MP, by the way the study didn't include any off shore bookies!
