Looks to me like she has one heck of a flat walk. The flat walk is basically the mother of the soft gaits, so that's a very good thing. I'm not sure exactly what she did when she picked up speed, but she seemed to stay pretty close to center-spectrum, until she finally trotted. (I always have trouble distinguishing feet in a video of a black horse.) I don't think I saw her get pacey. In other words, I think she's looking good. :) >>> Please remember this is about the 18th ride for Tosca over a period of about a year. The main purpose of having Bev ride her was to teach Tosca to move forward. I had trouble getting her to move at all. I don't think she's going need any "gait training" Nancy. Just let her grow up and get some strength. She's lovely. Is she full Icelandic, or is she the one who's mixed Icelandic X Peruvian?
