It wasn't so much that he was checked but rather than he was also shuffled back that seemed to make his trip so bad. However, and this touches on a point that BTW and I disagree on, when he finally got clear inside late, he didn't do any running. Don't get me wrong, it was tempting to take him back next out, and I, luckily, was able to resist. The fact that he didn't run a lick when he actually had to run on the outside was an indication that he pretty much needs it all his own way.
