a horse race
a wealthy father had 2 sons. each son had 1 horse so when the father died in his will he wrote " all my wealth goes to the son whos horse comes second" . so the brothers started the race but by midday they still hadn't got out of the gate. so a stranger comes by and asks why they are moving so slow so they tell him the story. so the stranger tells them something and they jump on a horse and start racing as fast as they can. what did the stranger tell them?

The stranger told them that each one should use the other brothers horse!

He told them they should ride each others horse and try to come in first.
Whats the answer? I'm guessing the stranger told them another horse already finished the race.
it could be the old man said it was the second one to sign the will!!!!
He told them that the horses had been switched
euclid,s brother is right. the stranger told them to ride each others horse and whoever comes first his horse will come second.
thanks for the posts though :D
this was my first posted riddle
He told them to ride one horse and have the other one run ahead since the one they are on will have to carry more weight and will be slower causing that one to be second and both get the money or they ride horses that are not theirs but still come in together
