Whip rules in Ireland

[Tony25]

Are their any whip rules in Ireland!

I find it quite ironic that forum members usually pick up on misuse of the whip when it comes to UK racing,they rarely mention Ireland!

Did anyone see D J Condon on JAYO, between the second last and last the horse received a public flogging, it was an absolute disgrace, he never gave the horse time to respond ,the force he was putting in was absolutely brutal…………Maybe he was auditioning for a corporal punishment job in Saudi Arabia!

I believe the Irish authorities take a different view to the use of the whip.

Yes he did give the horse 5-6 full cracks between the last couple of fences.

I believe he was trying out a new sort of racing whip recently devised by 50 Cent and Justin Timberlake, which uses Jayo Technology.

I’ll get me coat.
