Piece of shit jockey Victor Espinoza whipped Derby winner American Pharoah 32X down the stretch

Piece of shit jockey Victor Espinoza whipped Kentucky Derby winner American Pharoah thirty two times down the stretch of his win earlier this month. The horse was examined by 12 state-approved veterinarians after concerns were raised over the frequency with which he was hit.

“From a tactical standpoint, Espinoza did what he thought necessary to get American Pharoah home and that is his job,” wrote Bob Ford of the Philadelphia Inquirer. But “it looks bad when a rider keeps after a horse,” Darrell Haire, regional director of the Jockey’s Guild, told reporters.

“It might not be all that good for the horse, either,” Ford noted.

NESN reports, "Beyond concerns of animal abuse, there’s the practical upshot of leaving the horse spent before the gun ever fires at Pimlico Race Track on Saturday.

"Espinoza, despite (or perhaps because of) ample success on the track, has a history, too. He has been fined earlier in his career for improper use of the whip, according to Ford, and was fined $300 last Friday for breaking Stellar Wind’s skin at Santa Anita Oaks in Arcadia, Calif."

No marks were found on American Pharoah, because, you know -- he has dark horse skin.

Espinoza did what he thought necessary to get American Pharoah home and that is his job? He has been fined earlier in his career for improper use of the whip? Piece of shit jockey Victor Espinoza whipped Kentucky Derby winner American Pharoah thirty two times down the stretch of his win earlier this month? Craig Carton often points out that a poor horse has no idea he is in a race (while racing slobs like Mike Frances issue edicts to them) because they don't. That's why there is such a thing as 'improper use of the whip' with these racing assholes because that's the only way to let a horse know he better, you know, run fast.

Complete and utter bullshit. Remove the whipping completely.
