Do they have red cards in horse racing?

When the daily French paper Ouest-France called for Zidane to apologize “… just so that the children in the stadiums and in the suburbs, in the parks and the school playgrounds, can hear from his lips that this kind of action, while it can be understood and even forgiven, is unacceptable” they must have been referring to grown men who happened to be the size of a child. Jockey Paul O’Neil of England is facing a ban for headbutting his horse. Read that again. Try to comprehend it. He ZiZou’ed his horse in the face. The horse didn’t even cost him the race. He was thrown before the start and evidently thought the horse had become a slave to the business for its own good and punished him for his indescretions with a crash helmet to bridge of the nose. I wish I could make this stuff up.
