Re: [RC] [RC] gaited arabs? - melinda harrelsoni dont know about gaited arabs. the one i have ridden was the roughest ride on the planet. i also ride a half bred arab she has a lovely trot but definetly not a gait. i know of one mare who is half qh and half twh. she got the gait gene and she is as smooth as silk to ride. she also throws gait to her babies. they are all smooth to ride. as far as appys go. i know of one that i ride quite often that is also as smooth as silk to ride but he came from a twh show barn. they had been trying to breed to get color and gait and it took ahile. he is black with a white blanket and he is a gaitin fool. ps. i have heard that getting gait from a non gaited horse generally comes when you breed a gaited stallion to a non gaited mare. but it is always a 50/50 chance.
i believe ed bred a paso and a mustang and got a gaited fool. right ed?
