The veterinary report states that jogging in a straight line there was no obvious lameness. It was only when she was circled in either direction that any lameness was visible.
Its probably rare for horses to be jogged on a circle during routine pre- and post-race exams by horsemen in the setting of a shed row. If they did, there'd probably be even smaller fields, many more race day scratches, and earlier retirements.
The report also mentioned that there was no obvious external swelling on the horse even if a hind end issue was suspected.
