Me too. Exemplary use of the whip. Never turned her stick over till the 200 on either and all strikes were clearly on the rump where they are supposed to be and not on the flank/ribcage area and as you say, all with rhythm and balance. Should be showing that video at the apprentice schools this week.

Is that why she got a $3,500 fine for excessive use?

Well he is still in his PJ's with one of those cricket umpire clickers counting strokes on his HD TV reviewing all the races this week.  Been a big week so I guess he is behind.

I don't think @Thomass   is too worried about counting number of strikes. The stipes seem to have that reasonably under control. What he seems to be concerned about is that flank and head strikes go unattended. Any good reason why Matt should not have got the same penalty as Angela -50% of the winning riding fee- for the below breach?

You better watch yourself Curious

Banning FREE SPEECH screenshots will follow then you'll be told you're "anti racing" for pointing out the obvious cheating that's going on 

I've got numerous shots of Craig Grylls, Bosson, Collett in the last week...flattening ears, flicking ears, attacking the neck/ head region

when every single stakeholder knows the "head is sancrosankt" apart from the RIB

Someone may be able to explain this

How is ANY contact forward of the saddle is banned apart from" hands on reins TAPPING the shoulder" 

yet the RIB completely ignores "whip vertical, pointing skywards" (Oathams description of ONE successful prosecution of a 'low hanging fruit')

then allows Bosson to flex a whip @40% striking flat on the upper neck from that position?

From what I'm observing in recent days Jockeys appeared to have read these threads, started behaving like these leading jockeys in neck/head contacts and reaped the rewards

You simply cant activate a 'flight response" better than resembling a bee stinging the tops of horse's ears

Just as Corey Campbell did in the last yesterday

What a load of garbage.  But I guess free speech allows free rein to post crap.  To think some people miss you.

Yes, that ride wasn't a good look.

Oh dear Curious you're certainly tempting fate

But good on you for upholding FREE SPEECH and the criticism of the Feds/Chief in refusing to protect our beloved horses from abuse

You would've noticed that horse's ears flicking back and forth like a wasp had stung it

See if you can get Hercock in the first at T flattening her mount's ear as well...seems to be a whole swarm of wasps up the straight
