Check the replay, the 1 is basically running on her own at the end. The reins are DANGLING. Kent was completely out of control.

Hard to criticize a dude that won the next 2 races but this was one of his worst rides ever.

Chart attached

Not only did he do that REIN thing you are talking about but didn't he stand up and stop riding before the wire? Annoyed me enough the I unfortunately laid off of him in the next race, very costly error.
