Apprentice "Hands and Heels" Races

[Karabiner]

In these races it is stated that "whips shall be carried but not used".

Does that include waving the whip at the horse in a finish?

[The Camel]

I think the jockeys hands have got to stay on the reins at all times.

[Chompy]

Pretty sure they're not allowed to raise the whip at all unless it's to take corrective action. You planning on taking a ride sir?

I have been retired from the saddle for about twenty years now, although I still keep my virtual hand in by riding out several finishes per week from my armchair all of which involve the whip.

i am not convinced they are even allowed to use to take corrective action anymore

there was a race about two or three weeks ago were a horse went 4 lengths clear hung allover the track and the rider did not correct it presumably because she couldnt due to the rules?
