[RC] speaking of twh/mft - rides2farI don't know if it's the gait that gives them downhill speed or the build. Kaboot has always been a very fast downhill horse. Anybody who's seen him trot out will tell you he's a mile wide in the back. When he hits a big trot his hind legs are *way* wider than his body...leaves tracks like a rabbit. When he goes downhill he just drops in the rear and flies. Not sure what's going on back in the back. I always have to wait at the bottom for my traveling buddy. I've had a Walking Horse vet claim she thought his stifles were bothering him because of how wide he slung out his rear legs but he flexed clear. He's a bit bowlegged almost like a Walking Horse looks from behind sometimes when they spread out for their running walk. Makes him have almost a wobble look when he walks but he's never had any problem in the rear end.
