If you have a horse whose best asset is speed the worst thing you can do is to take them back as you are taking away their most powerful asset. IMO you are more likely to finish worse when you take a speed horse off the pace because you are afraid of another speed horse. Look how well Right to Vote ran on a very fast pace in the Peter Pan, doubt he gets first or second if he is taken off the pace regardless of how much speed there is in the race.
