Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

All horses move naturally with four basic gaits: the four-beat walk, the two-beat trot or jog, the canter or lope, a three-beat gait, and the gallop. There also are several four-beat "ambling" gaits that are approximately the speed of a trot or pace, though smoother to ride. These include the lateral rack, running walk, and t lt as well as the diagonal fox trot. Ambling gaits are often genetic in some breeds, known collectively as gaited horses. Often, gaited horses replace the trot with one of the ambling gaits. This book studies horse movements including rein back, dressage, lead change, and trail riding.
