"Big Brown's dislodged shoe, shown about 200 yards into the Belmont, may have "been like trying to run with a wobbly cleat." http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/horse/news/story?id=3456907

Exactly my point. With the amount of media attention that horse's hooves has gotten and the amount of work on his feet I would think a misaligned shoe should of been noticed.

The shoe had been pounded back into place before he got back to the barn. Obviously they didn't think it was a big enough deal to make an issue out of it, although the pictures show the shoe to have been sprung worse than they thought.
