SA Friday 4/12 - no whips allowed
Wow we're getting to jumping the shark now.
I'm sure the usual suspects here will scream 'save the horse or racing will be gone in CA'! And perhaps that may be the end result here. But now they're just trying to put out a fire by grasping at straws. And I use that analogy purposely as most of use here are the straw that stirs this drink.
I believe the safety of the horse is paramount to this game I play. I don't have all the answers. But obviously, neither does Belinda et al and now they're trying anything to appease the masses in this nightmare:
No Lasix!
- well let's start next year with 2YOs or something
Judicious use of the whip only for safety of the horse and rider!
- hey, let's try a day with no whip and see how that goes. We'll get good pub from that right?
Tell you what Belinda - I'm all for trying new things in an attempt to increase the safety of the horse. I personally do not think a whip causes severe injury to a horse but I also am not a member of PETA. I'm a bettor and you do not survive without me. If you're sincere here, then make Friday 4/12 a non-betting day. Close the windows for your experiment. No worries here tho as I will not be playing your track during your experiment.
