A few things about this horse...
I think the rider was wearing an astronaut's helmet. Did anyone see that thing?
Considering where he finished it's pretty amazing he was only a few off the lead on the turn.
Did anyone watch the head-on of the stretch? The horse was a solid 15 or more lengths behind the second to last horse into the lane and the rider was violently pumping away. It didn't do a lot of good....he lost by well over 100. Perhaps he was doing an odd aerobic exercise.
