It's actually quite simple, really.
The horse's head is noticeably turned to its right. It's unmistakable and quite obvious to the naked eye.
I've seen this countless times over the past few months, when I really started to pick up on it. It's odd, because I've been watching races since 1986-1987 and I don't recall picking up on this sort of thing so very often. Maybe it's because I am watching a lot more races lately from "lesser" tracks, and maybe this sort of thing happens more with lower class horses. Or maybe not.
And you can see the horse who ends up straightening things out and looking back ahead running much better...whether that's because it's now running a straighter path, or is more focused, I can not say. But you more often than not see a vast difference in performance from when the head is noticeably turned to the right.
That's all. Nothing too complicated. I'm sure I'm totally wrong and you'll tell me why that is. That would be a good thing. None of us should be operating under myths.
Welcome to the board.
