I have never seen, heard any first hand account of anyone doing this to an Icelandic. I've only seen claims here. I've saved a POA cross from road founder in all fours, definitely did not enhance any movement what so ever. I personally don't believe any trainers of Icelandic Horses are using road founder to enhance gaits. And even if one loose nut tried it, which I still find hard to believe but there are a**holes in every breed, it doesn't mean it is know practice in the breed.
