you could cls the whole screen and redraw it with the picture in the new position. also, you might be able to xor it but im not exactly sure how that works. as for the odds, you could use randint:
 randint(var_name, lower_bound,upper_bound) to return a random number to be used for odds, and then maybe tie that number into the speed of the horse

i forgot- u'll need to use setscreen("offscreenonly") 
View.Update  tp prevent flickering when you redraw the screen
