This was one of my 'unable to deliver emails' Hi Karen,
Don't know if mail has been slow today and this has been answered, or if I am just going to be a few days behind again in getting most of it. >There's no doubt in my mind that there are points where one gait >"morphs" (another good Lee word) into another gait. A pace literally >is a two-beat gait, the opposite of trot. I would certainly agree with that statement. >But, the flying pace is always >defined as having a point where one >foot is on the ground alone, right? Actually it is where there are no feet on the ground as Kim mentioned. >One person said what he was doing couldn't be a flying pace because you have >to start into flying pace from canter or gallop. That is not my experience, while lots of horses 'lay into pace', as they call it, from the gallop - there are also lots of horses who go to flying pace from tolt although it didn't used to be considered ideal because of horses getting more mixed up in their gaits.
