My neighbor who rides Grand Prix level dressage as said many times, to
look for a horse with a good walk and a good canter and forget about the
trot. A good trot can be taught, a good walk and good canter has to be
there.

Hmm.. My training numbers must be *way* off then... a 15mph canter?
That would be closer to hand gallop for us...
I want a nice steady 8mph trot and a 12mph canter... And I would
absolutely love to get an actual honest clockable 4mph walk...
Without having to use *my* legs to keep it up. Sadly my horse doesn't
have this walk on his own, more like 2.5 to 3mph...
