I have been bitten on the shoulder blade by a gelding when I was much younger and know that they can take a finger off or cause great damage...and no, he could not let that horse loose or that itself could have been disastrous.
Like DaHoss stated, optics did not look good but what else could he do until he got a longer lead hooked on?

Yeah I think it looked way worse than it really was. I was trying my best to explain it to people who watch horse racing once a year to no avail after the race to no avail.
