There are a lot of breeders on that list, and a wonderful runningwalk
is not what they, or I for that matter are breeding for. I want a
good clear tolt/rack.......in my Icelandics, now if they have other
easy gaits, I would be fine riding them, but it is not what I am
breeding for, and I do not thing its what they are wanting in evauls
or competitions. I am sure that the TWH people do not breed for
tolt/rack....they want a running walk....
