Many years ago dishonest riders sometimes agreed secretly to control their horses so that one chosen horse would win the race. but one of the riders would hold back their horses. The chosen rider would shoo his horse ahead of the others, and win the race.

These days, people use shoo into describe any athlete or competition that seems certain to win, even without cheating.
