I am corresponding with a lady who needed some advice in getting her 
home-bred Icelandic Horse to tolt.

She provided some back ground information on him.  She bought a good 
(expensive) mare, bred her to a good (expensive) stallion, both of whom were 
*prized* horses.

She kept the colt and raised him; starting him at five years old, bareback 
(most of his riding is bareback), and in a french link snaffle.

She sent video of her attempts to get him to tolt.

He fox trots, but no tolt.

Her most recent message to me:

"I am pretty frustrated; spent a lot of money on his
mother, spent a lot of money breeding to a good
stallion and ended up with a horse that doesn't tolt."

What would you say to her?  Suggestions?
