Disney Princess Question

How did Gothel figure out that Rapunzel had escaped the tower?

I feel like I'm missing something here. I re-watched Tangled and I was quite confused around the part where Gothel had met Maximus in the forest. How did she figure out that Rapunzel left the tower just by seeing that Max had no rider. Or was she just more worried that Max's missing rider had found the tower? I just don't get how Gothel put this together.

BLAZE TRANSLATES THE SCENE:
Max: NEIGH
Gothel: OMGWTF
Max: Oh, it's just some lady.
Gothel: Oh, it's just some horse from the palace . . .
FROM THE PALACE? ALONE? WHERE'S HIS RIDER OMG PEOPLE FROM THE PALACE HAVE NEVER COME NEAR HERE ARE THEY AFTER RAPUNZEL OH NO MY HUMAN FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH!

*runs like hell back to the tower to make sure no one has found Rapunzel*

(hopefully that clarifies things . . . in other words, a palace horse without it's rider= danger for Rapunzel. She wanted to make sure Rapunzel was safe)

IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW. :D Well that's what I kinda figured, that she was just checking on Rapunzel and hadn't previously figured out that she had escaped. Thanks for clearin that up :)

Well,she's walking through the middle of the forest, in a really deserted part, and a palace horse jumps out! She's been there for 18 years, and I bet that's either the first, or one of the first times she's seen ANY horse near the tower.

Plus, she's just left Rapunzel, and is going for 3 days, and you know she's nervous about it.
I think Gothel was just being slightly paranoid about someone finding Rapunzel (but she was right!)

That's true, it would be odd to see a random plalace horse pop up out of nowhere is the woods.

Good question I saw this last month in the cinemas and Gothel ran to the tower into the secret passage and was freaking out when she saw that Rapunzel was gone. Maybe she knew that Rapunzel didn’t want fresh paint and she was probably worried about her so called daughter(who really is a princess).

Hope that helps
