If we fired everyone for getting after horses at this level of physicality then I think there would be many jobs available.
Guy was in the wrong as he crossed the line no doubt, and the days served without pay seems appropriate.

There are a LOT of horse people on this board. You know, people who actually are AROUND racehorses quite a bit.
I would be shocked if any of those horse people were to say to me...yup...sometimes you have to punch these ****ers in the head 5-6 times in order to get them to pay attention.
I've been around racehorses. I've been around people who have been around racehorses. Been around people who were training some pretty unruly TBreds who had just come off the track.
Nobody would ever dream of punching a horse in the face, HARD, 5-6 times for ANY reason.
