Re: [RC] too much action? - rides2farMy Morgan mare comes from some show lines and has a lot of action..especially at her fast trot (which is 11 mph) I remember Nina Warren saying "Lane" (very high mileage Morgan in the SE) hit the ground "like a roto-tiller". She said, "Who would have ever dreamed that horse would stay so sound". So, some of you who actually remember him... was he "Parky?". I have a daisy clipper and my daughter has a parky horse. My daisy clipper has flipped with me 3 times in 9 years. Seems easier to trip. Her "Parky" horse is more likely to put a foot directly down on a round limb and his rear end will shoot out to the side but he seems to stay upright which is a definate plus! :-) The parky horse is 21, has I think 2000 mi. and still competing very successfully. He has the most fluid action you could ask for with no supplements at all. He doesn't really step extremely high, but he does remind me of somebody pedeling a bicycle at times. In the rear he reminds me of a football player doing the "run through the tires" drill.
