Horses who are homozygous for the gene may have a stronger gaited ability than those who are heterozygous. [13] Horses can now be tested for the presence or absence of this allele. [14] In 2012, the mutated gene was found in the Icelandic horse, the Tennessee Walking Horse, the Peruvian Paso, and the Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse.
Gaited horses are horse breeds that have selective breeding for natural gaited tendencies, that is, the ability to perform one of the smooth-to-ride, intermediate speed, four-beat horse gaits, collectively referred to as ambling gaits. [1] In most "gaited" breeds, an ambling gait is a hereditary trait.
The fastest "walks" with a four-beat footfall pattern are actually the lateral forms of ambling gaits such as the running walk, singlefoot, and similar rapid but smooth intermediate speed gaits. If a horse begins to speed up and lose a regular four-beat cadence to its gait, the horse is no longer walking but is beginning to either trot or pace.
The tölt is a lateral four-beat gait compared to the rack of the Saddlebred, but in style of performance sometimes more closely resembles the largo of the Paso Fino, or the running walk of the Tennessee Walking Horse. Like all lateral ambling gaits, the footfall pattern is the same as the walk (left hind, left front, right hind, right front ...
The spotted saddle horse is a mix of the pinto Spanish colonial breeds with the North American breeds such as the Morgan, and gaited breeds like the Tennessee walking horse and Paso Fino.
More than thirty horse breeds are "gaited", able to perform a four-beat ambling gait; some can also trot. [4] A Missouri Fox Trotter, with rider, can maintain a speed of 5 to 8 miles per hour (8.0 to 12.9 km/h) while using the fox trot, and can cover short distances at up to 10 miles per hour (16 km/h).
