This message is from: Alison Bakken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Mary,
I have heard that they make good driving horses. In Iceland they were primary bred for riding. I have seen old pictures of them in harness, but being lead while pulling a load. Usually the horse was wearing an open bridle. The tolt is much more comfortable than the trot. The tolt is similar to riding the running walk of the Tennessee Walker. The movement in the saddle is from side to side not up and down. Alison Bakken Sundre, Alberta
