With many horses,this stuff done by other jocks wouldn't cost them that much,but this horse just seems to constantly be going at a lot different speeds than other horses.When he lugs in a little,he has to be momentarily taken up(because he runs right up on another horse's heels .)His stride is just bigger,and is not going their speed.So,if he lugs in a bit,then he has to be stopped from clipping them.Believe me,Prado did what he could to take advantage of this.You can see by just looking at the head-on that he is much more talented,but he is a lot more awkward than them.
