I think I see foxtrot some of the time, but then, in some of the stills, she looks lateral in set-down and I think, naw, it's a saddle rack. . . Is she mixing her gaits a little maybe? I am very curious what the verdict is on this one. Nice little gaited horse though -- whatever she's doing!I wouldn't kick her out of my stable, that's for sure! : ) -- Renee M. in Michigan
Re: [IceHorses] What Gait / Stella
I grabbed stills from the video and put them here, along with the video: http://iceryder.net/gaitstella.html After looking at the stills, were you right in your guess? Judy http://icehorses.net http://clickryder.com
Re: [IceHorses] What Gait / Stella
there wasnt a strong enough vee in the legs on one side. Here's some stills taken from video of a fox trot: http://iceryder.net/foxtrot2.html Judy http://icehorses.net http://clickryder.com
RE: [IceHorses] What Gait / Stella
>>> That's what I meant by 'trotty' I know - just kidding. However, I used to notice people on the gaitedhorse list thinking that certain similar pictures were "trot" - not a foxtrot and not a soft gait. I would only shake my head and think, gee, you should see a REAL trot more often if you think that's a trot!

RE: [IceHorses] What Gait / Stella
Looks fairly 'trotty' but not clean...so I'd say fox trot. Since several of you have said that looks trotty, I have to tell you - you need to get away from gaited horses a while and get out and look at some three-gaited horses more often! :) That is NOT trotty, not by Thunder or Joe standards! Granted, it's certainly not pacey, and possibly/probably is foxtrot, but it's a long way from a pure (hard) trot! Karen Karen Thomas

RE: [IceHorses] What Gait / Stella
Looks close to a trot to me, so I'd guess Fox Trot. If it were a trot there would be two feet moving off the ground at the same time, or all four feet off the ground in the suspension phase, and that's not happening here. If there were a foxtrot, it would have to be one closer to running walk than to pure trot I think. >>> I still haven't gotten Liz's book yet, but I do intend to get iteventually. I assume you mean Lee Ziegler's book? It's a great book, only about $14-15 on amazon.com. For the folks who have Lee's book, you can see the phases of running walk on page 15 and foxtrot on page 20.

What gait for Stella in this picture? > > Flat walk or running walk? I'm not so great at judging speed from a still > picture. Looks close to a trot to me, so I'd guess Fox Trot. I still haven't gotten Liz's book yet, but I do intend to get it eventually. The list is just so long, and the money stack so short!
