Re: Horse Racing
I think it would be useful if the whip could keep count of how many times it is used in a race and once the maximum is reached - a red light could come on or it could go hot/cold to let the jockey know

l think thats a excellent idea but the trouble with the horse racing authorities is they are not that forward thinking chris but certainly looking at all these whip bans in the last few days the jockeys will have to adapt very quickly or further heavier bans will follow.

Re: Horse Racing
THE comeback for Forpadydeplasterer did not go to plan with the 2009 Arkle winner finishing second for the 12th time in his career, beaten 16 lengths by Roi Du Mee.
