I also have a mare that has a trot that people call a machine gun trot. 
 I found three things that helped, the first being quite a bit of time 
spent doing dressage exercises in which a smooth working trot was 
gradually opened up to a faster speed.  This helped both of us.  The 
second thing that helped was the discovery that at some speed between 
trot and canter she would switch into a weird sort of single foot gait 
that was faster than a trot, slower than a gallop and impossible to 
post to.  THAT gait was lovely.  The third, and most important thing, 
was that I just got used to her because she's a wonderful mare.
