Can't change lanes in pet derby?

After the first race or so after restarting my computer, I can race in a pet derby and switch lanes freely, unless someone uses a special ability on my pet. However, after that, I have to sit there pressing an arrow key for about 14 seconds (I literally timed this three times) before my pet changes lanes and then ends up on the other side of the screen. This is not because of a skill, because there are no icons notifying me of any lane-changing restrictions, and I am almost certain that it isn't because of lag or changing from land to water/water to land, as cheering and skills immediately activate and this bug happens everywhere. This occurs on all characters and with all pets for me.
Am I the only one experiencing this?

Thats because a pet ahead of you uses a ability and it makes you stay in the lane for like 20 seconds.
