I take that back. It's in another part of the rule. (e) In a Flat Race or Jumping Race, a Trial (including jump-outs and/or tests for certification purposes), a Rider must not use his or her whip in an excessive, unnecessary or improper manner. -
Thanks. I did have it (parked). For response this week. I note that they have conveniently left out critical elements of the IFHA guidelines though good to see the prohibition on flank use and overhand forward of the saddle. It still won't be compliant with or "align the Rules with the International Agreement", will it? Only padded/shock absorbing whips/crops which have not been modified in any way may be carried in a race. This Guideline gives examples of use of the whip which are prohibited: - Using the whip to the extent of causing injury. - Using the whip with the arm above shoulder height. - Using the whip with excessive force. - Using the whip on a horse which is showing no response. - The continued use of the whip on a horse after its chance of winning or being placed is clearly gone. - The unnecessary use of the whip on a horse that has clearly won its race or has obtained its maximum placing. - Using the whip on a horse which is past the winning post. - Using the whip on the flank of the horse. - Using the whip with excessive frequency. - Using the whip on any part of the horse’s head or in the vicinity of the head. - The use of the whip in front of the saddle while the whip is held in the forehand position, unless exceptional circumstances prevail.

Hasn't been racing too bad without them. What about the other three in the race that have Blinker "first time"? How do we choose which one has had the magic enhancement? Or do we just settle on value based on exposed form? -
Pukekohe can't need coring for Saturday and Ellerslie must already be done this week.
