Post no whip,challenge later,chalenge earlier and go instruction
Can anyone advise on when to use any of the jockeys orders during the race please?for instance the "go"instruction.If there is 4 furlongs to go will the horse lose stamina if go is activated too early?i usually wait until in the last 2 furlongs,but sometimes my horse finishes way down the field.Does the "no whip" instruction work?i have never used it and can't see how it can be of any benefit at all.

I usually use it if I'm using it at about 2.5-3 furlongs out, depending on the horse. No whip is to stop the jockey using whip and make the horse go further clear, which is useful when trying to keep a horses handicap rating low.
