They find out that the farrier, had been meeting with a businessman who wanted to buy and ruin breeding any more horses that would save the ranch. Conan deduces that it wasn't an accident and that someone gave the horse chocolate which is stimulant for horses. But it wasn't the cause for the death and was a cover-up for the real criminal. The criminal is Hirohito Ninomiya and Okusu was the one who's covering for him. The murder weapon was the horseshoe that the person in haste put on wrong. Hirohito confesses and had killed the farrier accidentally in self-defense.

Trivia

• This is the first case about horses before Thoroughbred Kidnapping Case, and is name after the famous Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.
• If curious about more informaion on the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona, here are a few interesting links, which includes, how it got it's name, as well:
  • What did the OK stand for in the O.K. Coral?
  • O. K. Building
• Motoo Sugiyama's car is a 1996 Red BMW Z3 [E36/7].
• This is one of the first cases where a person actually apologised to Kogoro, Ran, and Conan for the mild disagreement that they overheard for a few seconds, unlike the real accusing shouting matches in front of them, and no apology.
• Japan is number one, when it comes to horse racing country rankings.
• Although this case stated that not all of their horses are there, due to it being in the middle of Horse Racing Season, however, that is twelve months long, in short, an entire year.
• The Nagasaki Police Doctor, Sakurai, did not seem to remember Kogoro, even though they probably met in A Honey Cocktail Murder Case.
• In A Honey Cocktail Murder Case, Doctor Sakurai was working with the Nagasaki Prefecture Police, however in this case, he seems to be working in the Chiba Prefecture, so he may have transferred prefectures.

• Tea and Chocolate are stimulants for horses, and therefore bad for them.
