Change gallops to gallop

Aubrie · Answer 2

The answer is the last option - change 'gallops' to 'gallop'. Because you shouldn't change 'horses' into 'horse', because then you would have to change the entire sentence which follows. And if you only change the verb 'gallop' you will get the correct answer, and the subject and the verb will agree.
