That's what I thought but I watch so many sprints and almost all of the horses are on their left lead at the wire. Was beginning to doubt myself.

horses don't switch leads for numerous reasons. with younger horses it's often times still being green or weren't trained properly to switch leads. Sometimes two year olds just have their minds wander too much in early races to remember to switch leads. most horses grow out of it. with older horses it's often times an issue with soreness.
