[RC] trot vs canter - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: kate kate.kearby@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

has to be more the feel of the individual horse...  my old mare could trot 
smooth and comfortable for hours, an old man said if she'd been born 100 years 
ago they'd have loved her as a buggy horse.  and part of her trot was being of 
considerable substance, and i see horses of more substance more incline and 
easier going at a trot.  her daughter, a slighter build and taking more after 
the sire on the other hand is a cantering horse...  the kind you feel must have 
carried the sheiks across the desert, easy riding long reaching rolling ground 
covering gallop.  and her pulse goes down when she's in it compared to her 
trot.  the old mare's canter was more of a 'charge' get there now quick, but it 
won't last all day she used her trot for that.
