Anyone interested in watching the headon replay can see this horse, unable to sustain his gait on lefty lead on the turn, momentarily switch to righty lead, which causes him to 'hop'. Last time out, his poor action in the lane was due to his switching to lefty lead late. So, while switching to the wrong lead in the lane is not necessarily a sign that the horse is sore (other causes might be greeness or bad/good habit) it was a clue that this horse has problems.
