eljay 1,719 Report post Posted April 28, 2021 Can anyone remember when this rule was last enforced? 3.7 A driver must ensure a whip does not project outside his or her sulky. I presume this means both when the whip is carried over the drivers shoulder and when the whip is used in horizontal strikes from outside the sulky shafts.

It was a decent crack, but only the one, so seems a bit harsh to me. Perhaps he should have taken Nat into the room with him Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eljay 1,719 Report post Posted April 30, 2021 Race 4 = T Mitchell (BLITZEMBYE) [Rule 869(2) Whip & Rein Reg] - Using whip with more than a wrist flicking motion. Race 5 N Rasmussen - nothing in report. Watch both videos - which is worse. I believe it's called consistency!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
