> I will get video next week when I am there. Great! Try to have the horse and rider pass in front of you, with you standing about 10 to 12 feet away. You want to try to get the rider and horse to fill the view finder.

There's so many things that are involved; such as the type of spinal column. Is it tight or loose? curved or straight? how are the muscles of the back, tight or loose? is the horse's neck short or long? placed low or high? ewe necked or with a nice curve? Add to that the familial predisposition; do the parents gait naturally? These are not questions specific to the horse you are going to look at, just general questions to think about when looking for a gaited horse. Judy http://icehorses.net http://clickryder.com
