IMO
I don't see that as herding at all. The jock had his whip in the correct hand and the horse was still getting out the whole stretch. Now the jock didn't 'straighten' her out but he was trying to use the whip to do that.
I see herding as when a horse is on the rail, and then there is a horse in the 5 path making a major move, and said rail horse gets directed by the jock to drift out to intimidate
