Disqualification for whip overuse expected to be announced as a new deterrent in Britain
Disqualification is to be introduced as the ultimate sanction for whip offences in Britain, it has been suggested.
A newspaper report on Thursday, which has not been criticised by some of those in a position to know, claimed the sanction would be available in especially serious instances of the rules being breached in high-profile races.
The BHA's drawn-out whip review is expected to be published next week following an egregiously long process. The review was first mooted at the end of 2018 when the ruling body's then chief executive said "a new structure for penalties and deterrents for overuse of the whip" would soon be announced.
