Re: [RC] gaited arabs? - Barbara McCrary

We once had a 16 h. gelding who was 1/2 Percheron (the light variety) and 1/2 Morgan. He had a phenomenally fast trot with considerable knee and hock action (got that from both sides.) When either allowed or asked to trot faster, he would go into a rack that I could not post. So I just sat in the saddle and away he would go. Wheee!  It was quite an experience.

but what i said was that i couldnt teach a horse how to gait.  a trainer can enhance it some, but cant teach it.
 
as for trotting horses learning how to gait,  hate to sound like a doubting thomas here, but i would have to see that.    are you sure that is what's going on?      ed
