Our collection of whips and crops are expertly handcrafted, made with resistant materials. We offer our whips in a variety of different sizes and colors. Many of our riding crops are also customizable, allowing clients to design their whips uniquely. One way that they can do this is by changing the whip shaft ribbon on the crop. The number of color combinations are endless, as well as the finishes.

The statement read: "It is obviously very disappointing and upsetting for all of us here to see that Lunar Discovery was disqualified from her second-placed finish last week. However, it was understood by the sport that in tightening up the rules and penalties around whip use we would see a reduced level of discretion as to what constituted an offence. On this basis, despite being firmly of the view that there was no detrimental impact at all on our horse, we are accepting of the outcome that the review panel has reached." Leading racing figures had called for the changes to be postponed until after the Cheltenham Festival but they came into force this week with BHA chief executive Julie Harrington claiming the sport would look better on the TV news under the new rules. Julie Harrington, the BHA's chief executive, told an international racing industry conference in Australia this year that "we know the final stages of the (Cheltenham) Gold Cup will be shown on news programmes and that means this is an opportunity to make the sport look better."

David Jones, chairman of the whip consultation steering group, said: "This whole process, from start to finish, has always been about listening to the views of all our audiences and making decisions which best preserve the perception of our sport and the welfare of our horses, while also recognising the role that the padded whip plays in safe and fair race riding." BHA chairman Joe Saumarez Smith added that the BHA previously endorsed the “clear set of objectives set out by the whip consultation steering group in the summer”. While the initial proposals were made following an extensive consultation process, it was important that further, detailed discussions take place with those most affected by the proposals. Three strokes from a whip on the palm of the hand is hardly a controlled scientific experiment. For one thing it could be argued that Crowley, one of the most easy-going members of the weighing room, is simply too pleasant to launch a proper, full-blooded assault on anyone, even a journalist. Germany: Germany allows 7 whip strikes throughout the race if the horse finishes in one of the first three places. Less than 7 strikes if the horse is not responding and not amongst the winners. Conclusion

United Kingdom: The U.K. allows7 whip strikes in a flat race and 8 strikes during obstacle racing. When strikes are above the number, race stewards can still use their discretion whether a breach has been committed.Potential breaches of the whip rules will be referred to the committee by the stewards on raceday. In addition, the Committee may identify issues from their own review of races. A new whip review committee will be launched to make decisions on penalties, which, it is anticipated, will meet once a week.
