Yeah, I don't know what kind of inner clock Rosie has, but if she had even a decent clock, she would have known that the slow pace was not advantageous to her horse. At least that's my thought.
In short, when a horse who likes the lead, and a faster pace, is prevented from doing that, it affects every horse in the race, in one way or another.
