The Straight Fact About Straightness
"Horses are not built to move like they are on railroad tracks. The engagement of the inside hind comes from the ability of the horse to carry that leg under the body in the direction of travel. The inside hind is the drive leg of a horse. The rest of the movements are developed from it"
"When the lengthening of stride is required in the tests or training, if correctly schooled, the horse will have developed an equal push-power with the hind legs to engage both equally, as the horse is placed in a straight position from poll to tail. The evidence of training will be obvious as the lengthening will be displayed without a widening of the hind legs" Elaine Ward
