I guess the military did that to me, tough to change after all those years.

I'm looking at it from a bettors pov when I say that. If they announce that a horse isn't going to be whipped and then is it will cause a upheaval. I more or less gave up on giving instructions most of the time. You just confuse the little fellas for the most part.
