Artical on the whip....

[Deleted]

TRC has an interesting article on the whip and it,s elimination....lol...some folk want it eliminated as some knocks over due its use....it will never be eliminated But I can see where a jock will only be allowed to use same and depending on the distance run may be only allowed to use same to strike the rear ends so many times in a race.....which would force trainers to ensure thier horses are in better shape to win....and less entered for a conditioner....lol...etc etc....the further the distance the more often the whip may be used....or a large fine and lost races for the jock and trainers allowed to race horses at the given track in the future and if trainers have horses stabled at said track not be allowed the enter thier horses for a no. of given days...lol...etc...any thoughts...lol...
