If he gets pinged for the whip rule, I along with RIO won't mind covering the fine :))

:
Jockey M Pateman was fined $750 under AR137A(5)(a)(ii) for using his whip on three
additional occasions prior to the 100m
. When assessing penalty
Stewards took into account the
totality of his whip use and h
is recent record in relation to this rule and that he had won the race
Cracks me up the stewards approach to whip use.
When a jockey cracks the whip three times more than he is allowed to he immediately cops a fine.
But when a jockey doesn't show any vigour on a questionable ride or intent, nothing happens.
Except if your Douggie Whyte and it is in a group one, then there is no place to hide.
Not sure you need to be in one of those towers around the course to count the whip useage.
Every other hard decision generally is a no decision.
