28. HINTS ON HORSES 51 ■'^- Fin. 20. In all probability the conventional position (Fig. 29) of the leaden horses in the race game conve3's to the mind the better impression of speed. At a walk, trot, canter, or gallop horses move their feet in the following order, viz. Near fore, near hind, off fore, off hind. 52 HINTS ON HORSES Fig. 30. At an amble or triple they move like a camel, viz. Near fore, off hind, off fore, near hind (Fig. 30). HINTS ON HORSES 53 A horse places his hind feet almost e...xactly on to the footprints of his fore feet. If going lazily, the hind feet do not reach to the fore-foot prints (Fig. 31): if over-exerting himself, he generally goes wide behind, and places his hind feet beyond and outside the fore-foot prints. If walking, a horse has not got up much impetus, and each pace is only about half his length. As he increases his speed he gets up momentum and his paces increase until he is no longer able to progress at a walk, and breaks into a trot. Similarly from a trot he gradually extends to a gallop, until at his utmost speed he is ex- tended to his full.
