Some folks argue that this is the same thing, it's not, but either way I do feel like if the horse is trimmed and shod to its natural way of going it will be ok and stay sounder longer.  The horse I am riding ctr this year has had hi/low all his life and has nearly 4000 open ctr miles and over 100 or so aerc miles.  Sometimes when he's goofing off he will bee bop his trot in the front and get called grade one lame.  If he's working 'seriously' he trots perfectly square and balanced.   He's 24 years old and has been doing distance for over 10 years.  I was curious to know if it was a tendency to the ansata ibn Halima bred horses?
