I think Moore rides his horses in way that they (the horses!) are most comfortable, not in a way that might be best in theory. To push a horse a little faster than is comfortable for it (which many do, so as to keep it in the “right” place) is probably not the ideal way to get the best out of that particular horse. So Moore may not have his horse in a position that he (or us) thinks is ideal, but he will mostly have it in a position that allows it to run the race overall as best as it can.
