Good going, Virginia!  Can we get any video of that faster walk with a head 
nod?  That would be great to take a look at.  The side to side gait may have 
been a stepping pace?

It's easier for pacey horses to hold an easier canter for a little ways, 
going uphill, that they might not be able to do on the flat.

Probably!  They all want a little bit of "news" as to what's going on 
outside their home.

Imagine doing some scent discrimation with your horses.  They really enjoy 
this!
