exactly why this is apples and oranges,don't pretend it's not.It has nothing to do with use or misuse of whips.

My point was simply that equipment is safe when used correctly, and can do great harm when misused.

Don't complain the next time you get nosed out of the tail end of a superfecta if the jockey chose not to use the whip because he was afraid to be fined.

That's happened to me, that jocks have wrapped up on horses I've been on, or stood in the stirrups. I leave it to the jock. He's on the horse, I'm not. I know whipping a done horse doesn't do anything. I've never complained, and never will. The horses come before winnings for me.
