It kind of depends on the horse though. My horse puts her ears back when she is running flat out, when she is with in herself her ears are forward- pretty good indicator that she's being lazy!
As for knowing where the finish line is.... Horses always know. The same horse mentioned above always tries to stop before the cones, it makes me angry! (We run in barrel races)
