- Horses, mules, and donkeys (equines) move at a walking pace of about 4-5 miles per hour. A fast trot can be as much as 9 mlp, a gallop 20 or more. However, a gallop cannot be sustained all day, the animal would have to alternate with short bursts of speed and then periods of just walking or trotting.

List of gaited horse breeds List of gaited horse breeds. 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. In most gaited breeds, an ambling gait is a hereditary trait.

- Jumping is very strenous especially on the horse's front feet and legs. As a horse lands …on the other side of the jump all the concussion (from body weight, height and speed) is taken up by first one front hoof and then the other, depending on what lead the horse is on as he lands. Even small jumps may be too much for a horse that may be ouchy.

- Hands are how you measure horses. Each hand is 4 inches. So, if your horse is 60 inches tall, 58 divided by 4 is 14.2 hh (Hands High) if your horse was 59 he would be 14.3hh. …But, if he was 60, he would be 15hh, because there can only be up to .3 hh, and after that it goes to the next number, since there is 4 inches in each hand.

Patterns require the following movements: 1  Circles: the horse must perform large, fast circles at a near-gallop and smaller, slow circles at a lope. Circles: the horse must perform large, fast circles at a near-gallop and smaller, slow circles at a lope. 2  They should be perfectly round, with the rider dictating the pace of the horse. 3  There should be an easily seen change of speed as the rider transitions from the large, fast to the small, slow circles.
