Following an agreement between 1/ST RACING's Gulfstream Park, the Jockeys' Guild and the Florida Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association, Gulfstream Park will institute new house rules regarding the usage of riding crops.  

 The implementation of the new crop rules come into effect on Friday, Aug. 6. The extensive list of rules includes: designating when a rider is not carrying a whip; the crop may be used to maintain focus or for safety, but the horse must be given a chance to respond after two taps before trying again; crops may not be used on 2-year-olds prior to Apr. 1. The rules also apply to horses during workouts. Further details on the crop usage rules can be found here.
