Agreed, the video quality isn't the greatest, but I don't see the whip moving much at all. Nor do I remember Funny Cide being hit numerous times, which is something I would normally notice. I have this Preakness on tape, I'll have to re-play it and see if I think Santos was overusing the whip.
And Pillow Pants, thanks so much for posting that picture. I *LOVES* that pict!! Wonder if I can buy it to add to my racing pix collection???
Now, I have a question for the trainers/trainer-types about fast workouts before a big race causing a horse to be rank, but I will have to post it in a few, as I have to go pick up a Za. You know you've moved to the country when you cannot get a pizza delivered!! Also when you have to mow your driveway, whcih I did earlier today.
