Whips are so last season, let Australian jockeys know how you feel.

Good timing for the RSPCA to launch their campaign Less is More, Whips are so Last Season – a girl’s guide to the races. It’s a really nice campaign that allows people to show their support by recording a personal message to Australian jockeys. Hopefully there will be lots of participation leading up to the Melbourne cup.

Show Australian jockeys that you think less is more when it comes to whips.

Email a photo of you (perhaps in your raceday best) holding a Less is more sign to post@rspcalessismore.posterous.com, along with your name and email address somewhere in the message body.

We want to show the Australian Racing Board and the Australian Jockeys Association these photos as an indication of public support for this issue, so make sure your friends get involved too!

All submissions will be held briefly for moderation to ensure contributions are tasteful.
