Here's a thought!  Many non-racing folk that I know have watched racing and mistakenly thought that the jockey was hitting the horse with the whip with every stride.....it can sometimes appear this way to the non-initiated.  It may seem ridiculous to those who watch horseracing on a daily basis but I wonder if something as simple as pointing this out to the great British public might be an idea?  


In this sport there are (has been and will be) some less than honest jockeys, trainers, owners and punters.  While racing is trying to clean up it's image, is it really such a good idea to tempt jockeys to the dark side by relieving them of an income for weeks on end? 

Hear what Chuck Testa says:



159                    155                   145
      56                      56                     26
