T&C Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 What if the horse didn't like what he saw ahead of him and just moved to a place that looked friendlier to run?

I'm not enough of a horse racing guy to know where this foul fell on that scale, but changing the outcome of the biggest event in the sport is a big deal.
