the horse pulled a DNF?

"López García and Glomser joined forces for the final seven
kilometres. The duo briefly became a trio at five kilometres to go
when a horse ran on the course in front of Glomser. The riders
followed the four-legged cycling fanatic for 300 metres until he ran
back of the course. Near the same time, Schleck was running out of
horsepower and drifting back."
