I dare any of you to stand up. Start hopping on one leg. You will need to change over to the other leg to keep the best action going. Same with horses.
On the turn, if a horse runs on the incorrect lead, it will hurt their ability to stay closer to the rail...
Picture making a sharp left while driving but your tires are pointing outward. Less force and distribution but you're going outward.
I even check for what lead horses are on , on the backstretch and in turf chutes.
More parts of the puzzle you uncover the better.
