Whilst there is a requirement for all jockeys to carry a whip, there is no obligation on riders to use their whip. The whip should only be used for safety and encouragement. Any use of the whip must be appropriate, proportionate, professional, and take account of the Rules of Racing and guidelines laid down by the BHA. The whip may be used to encourage a horse – to have the horse focused and concentrated – to perform at its best but the stimulus provided by the use of the whip must be limited so as not to compromise the welfare of the horse.

Jockeys can only carry a specifically designed and approved energy bsorbing whip.

Riders should consider the following guidance so as to minimise any possibility of being found in breach of the Rules: Urging the horse to lengthen its stride and increase its pace by first using hands and heels before picking up the whip Giving consideration to how much of the race is still left to run before starting to use the whip Showing the horse the whip and giving it time to respond before using it Using the whip in the backhand position Having used the whip, giving the horse a chance to respond before using it again Keeping both hands on the reins when using the whip down the shoulder in the backhand position Using the whip in rhythm with the horse’s stride

Whip Rules

The permitted number of uses of the whip with hands off the reins is 7 times for Flat races and 8 times for Jumps race. Stewards will consider whether to hold an enquiry if a rider has used his whip 8 times or more in a Flat race or 9 times or more in a Jump race or misused the whip in some other way. When deciding whether or not to hold an enquiry, Stewards will consider how the rider has used the whip during the course of the entire race, with particular attention to its use in the closing stages, and relevant factors such as: The manner in which the whip was used, including the degree of force The purpose for which the whip was used The distance over which the whip was used and whether the number of times it was used was reasonable and necessary Whether the horse was continuing to respond. Provided that the manner in which the whip had been used was measured, Stewards may choose to disregard occasions when the whip has been used in the following circumstances:
