The whip is used in horse racing to beat horses towards the end of the race when they're tired or sore and want to slow down. This is cruel and inhumane. Yet, the horse racing industry gets away with it. Just like the bullhook, the whip is another torture device for animals.
During Victor Espinoza's ride on American Pharoah in the Kentucky Derby, he hit the horse 32 times with his whip.
Please sign this petition to urge the horse racing industry to ban the whip!
