"Is it worth the risk? More speed in exchange for a greater risk of failure? No, I can't risk it. Not when I'm this close to the border. If he gets too close, I'll just have to find another way to distract him. To slow him down a little. I doubt that the arrow to the horn trick will work again. Not when he's prepared for it. I'm surprised he didn't try to dodge or block the first arrow. Maybe he was distracted with whatever spell he was trying to cast? Did I catch him off guard?"
