I know one trotter (personally - I know of a few others) who was out winning club elite SJ classes last season (105cm). Watching him is an adrenaline rush as quite often when he was flying round the course he'd forget he was cantering and start trotting. Legs everywhere - but he certainly gets the job done.
My friends daughter has a horse who is either trotter or half trotter (he isn't papered). He was cut at 7 and left in a field until he was 13. After 5 years of careful training he will canter, but it is all one paced - breakneck - and his default at anything is head in the air at full trot... a beautiful and well mannered horse, but lucky that he has such a patient owner!
