One stride of a racehorse is more than 10 feet-- if he bolts he probably goes about 15 feet laterally while moving 100 feet forward, in a couple of seconds. To perform the maneuver you describe he would have to be standing still.
An extreme move at racehorse speed would be coming out 5 paths in a hundred yards or so, which costs virtually nothing, in measureable terms. But sure, it could be enough to cost you a photo.
Take a look at an overhead shot of a racetrack some time, and see how long the straights are compared to the width.
Meanwhile, I have acess to seats in the main building. Is there a difference between those and nominator tickets?
