Yeah!  That's what I call it too.  Our old fart gelding Froggie
does it, & so does Nasrif.  Just like someone else described, to
train, what we do is to ask for a faster & faster walk without
allowing the horse to break into a trot.  You have to sit back a
little, just like on a gaited horse.

So far only the horses that have a great walk to begin with have
developed this.  The other horse I've tried it with never "got
it".  Lif
