When a horse is used as a blocker, or chaos inducer, they are no longer in the boundaries of winning the race and that, to me, is different.
I don't like rabbits either and think every horse should be in it to win it, but you're right that there is a big difference between a rabbit and a blocker. One is simply setting a pace, which the competition can ignore. The other is actively blocking or herding, etc. to impede the competition. Big difference.
