Racking Horses

Racking Horses, Single Footers.

What Gait / Freyja

What gait is this Icelandic Horse doing? She's not set in gait; the gal is doing some gait training, and doing a nice job. She's not forcing her into a frame, or pulling on the reins, or having her fight the bit.

She appears to be moving in and out of some easy gaits. Can you identify what is happening?

What Gait / Icelandic Horse

This Icelandic Horse mare is doing a lateral gait. From the naked eye, the laterals are working together and landing at very close to the same time, making it a pace. Slow motion shows a slight difference in the landing of the front foot and the back foot on the same side. Probably not enough difference to call it a stepping pace.
