I imagined myself hacking desperately at a sea of appendages...

Actually he's not. The only time you hit your horse during a Halter session is when they are behaving extremely badly and even then when you do use the whip it's more like a light slap than anything else. Thing is, in Halter the horse is supposed to respond to how you hold the whip and what you ask of them with the lead. The way he's holding the whip right now, despite making it look like he's going to hit the horse, is actually a cue for the animal to stand up straight and to keep their heads up. Some horses do freak out when given this cue, because it does look like they might get hit from their standpoint, or when too much pressure is applied by the handler but really the horse in this photo is mostly freaking out because the crowd in the stands are screaming and shouting whenever another horse they like is being judged in the background; not because of what his handler is doing.
Besides, everyone in the crowd would have charged the man if he dared start actually abusing the horse in front of them. xD (That's the nice thing about Nationals, all the top trainers are there and no one tolerates people abusing their horses here.)

Ah... okay. I don't know the rules of Halter sessions very well. XD

But I'm glad you cleared that up with me. I was getting a bit worried. :/

Good shot though.

It's alright, not many people do.
I would have also been worried too if I saw this picture and didn't know the reason behind why he was holding the whip that way to be honest. ^^
And thank you.
