TODAY’S RACECARDS: Salisbury, Newcastle, Nottingham, Kempton and Sligo

British Horseracing Regulation conclude their investigation into the purpose and use of the whip and it’s acceptable use in and around horses, four decades late. How does the saying go? “Better late than never ….?”

In perspective, how are these New Whip Rules to be transcribed into the present Rules of Racing?

In perspective, how are these New Whip Rules to be perceived by the many bloodhorse illiterate stewards?

BBC Breakfast yesterday had Lee Mottershead (Racing Post) and Tim Morris (Veterinary) on live regarding the use of the whip. Morris declared to one and all ‘that horses don’t feel pain.’ Who is this man? Wherever is this man at .... to make such a statement as this? How much is Morris being paid to make this announcement, and by whom?

JULIAN MUSCAT THE WERTHEIMER FAMILY

Horses and Chanel brand combine in sweet scent of success

JULIAN, traces the fascinating history of a famous racing and breeding enterprise that is now in its centenary year.

THE WERTHEIMER FAMILY and some interesting websites

"IT PROMISES to be quite a day. First up is GOLDIKOVA, who bids farewell to her doting French fans on Sunday before her tilt at a fourth successive Breeders’ Cup Mile.

It says much about GOLDIKOVA that her younger half-sibling is reduced to the role of supporting act. Yet that won’t bother the Wertheimer brothers, even though GALIKOVA’S Arc chance computes to single-figure odds.
