Really? I thought it was fairly obvious. I never want to see any horse I bet pressing the pace. Its just not where you want to be. What advantage do you have? I want to be on the lead, stalking tucked in, or coming from out of it in a fast paced race.
IMO they seem to back up/stop more then any other type of horse. The speed either keeps going or your sucked into a hot pace and stuck making the first, most of the time premature move.
