    You have to support your comments with some facts - Jack isn't and maybe that is because he cannot be bothered doing the research or because there are no facts.

    The next time you see Gav perform a magic show I expect you to Post the race details on here Jack - deal?
    We will see how many you post in the next year - maybe that thread 'How to Destroy a Horses chances' would be the spot

    It's an absurd rule

    Like so many other poorly thought out edicts that Industry Participants must labour under...the ridiculous and ultimately abortive attempt by HRA to restrict the use of various bits/associated pieces of equipment being a classic example...rules such as this come to pass as a result of the 'idle hands do the Devil's work' efforts of non-horsemen and associated Industry funded desk pilots.
    It is a FACT that a Driver can get infinitely more of an effort from a horse by way of brushing its Hocks or banging the wheel disks etc than they ever could from using a whip on them.
    Horses respond to the surge of adrenaline produced by an unexpected brush of its hocks or a loud noise much much more than they'll ever respond to pain ...BUT whipping is Ok while brushing and banging wheel disks is not. Absurd.
    To fine a driver for dropping a foot and brushing a horse in a race is a stretch for mine. To do so for brushing them in the prelim is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. All Gavin was doing was pre-racing a horse with its own Adrenaline and there is no rule against that...although now that I have said it no doubt some dickhead somewhere has been given the idea to try it on.
    Before anyone jumps on the animal welfare train...brushing their hocks does not hurt them one bit.
