 What does skipping the last dose before the vet check accomplish, other than
 perhaps hiding from the vets?  What's happening with the horse in this
 situation that causes the pulse to hang?

Some horses tend to be more energetic and excited during the vet check if 
they're peaking with glucose. It's not an indicator of non-readiness to go 
on, just excess energy. No one has reported this situation couple with a 
horse that had any difficulty whatsoever continuing with the ride.
