One of my favorite jocks out there, would be a shame if this is the case. I have to assume there's something more to this story.

Maybe Delaware should have started testing those padded whips sooner...

Of course not! I love idle speculation.

Not to single out your post at all John, but it's not idle speculation. Happened yesterday and he was in front of stewards this morning.

Story will appear soon on Blood-Horse or elsewhere. There is going to be a real negative reaction.

I said that tongue in cheek, of course. Are there any more details to the story than the first post in this thread?

Not that anyone would condone what may have happened....but I hope he is not being punished outside of the rules because....A - the horse suffered the supposed injury and B - because of a concern over public backlash.

If the rules need to be fixed, then fix them, but making examples, especially at a time of hysteria like now, is a very slippery slope.

Russell Baze got 15 (30?) days for misuse of the whip. Six months for Rose would seem very excessive.

Wasn't the Baze case an incident of him trying to ride out a horse who appeared to be going wrong just before the wire?

This sounds like straight up abuse if it is true.

Baze could always say that he wasn't sure his horse was going wrong until it was too late.

If all of this is true then it's an appropriate suspension. These guys have to be punished where it hurts...the wallet.

The part that has always befuddled me is the gross disparity between sanctions handed down to jockeys and those handed down for trainers. If he is going to get six months, then "the authorities" are saying that his offense is 2-3X worse than the misdeeds of trainers with "bad" positives. It just doesn't compute. No wonder the riders feel that they are treated as if they are a fungible commodity.

Why on earth is Rose hitting a horse with a whip on the head?? Was it accidental or was he just banging him on the noggin??

I just watched it - it was Appeal To The City in the 3rd at Delaware Park yesterday.

Right before the wire he smacks the horse in the face with a left handed whip.

Watch for yourself at Cal Racing.
