3 Gaited Saddlebred Charm

Saddlebreds are popularly known as show horses, with horses being shown saddle seat in both three-gaited and five-gaited classes. The former are the three common gaits seen in most breeds, the walk, trot and canter.  Three-gaited horses are shown with a shaved off “roached” mane and with the hair at the top of their tails, an area called the dock, trimmed short.
