I'm no rider, but I'd think the horse feels the rhythm of the jock. When that rhythm stops, horse relaxes a bit. Besides, it's not like he had to make up a couple of lengths.
You and I agree and I think from the outside that that move, albeit slight, was the move that lost the race for the simple reason that it happened so close to the target, the finish line.
