A key change is the introduction of a sliding scale of penalties for breach of the ten strike requirement based on the number of strikes made

"No horseman is permitted to use their whip in a striking motion on more than ten occasions inside the final 400 metres.
This is inclusive of 'backhanders' and the use applies to the horse, harness and/or sulky."
