I will agree, you are right that I don't know a lot about horses. I just figured that maybe by being hit a little a light will go off in their heads telling them "I better not do that again, that whip hurts". Like I said, I don't know a lot about horses and now that you tell me I can see I'm wrong. I just don't see the real big deal of what Rex did, I've seen plenty of jockeys do that.
