Sally is super smooth gaited even barefoot. Moves a lot like a paso fino. Neck reins, backs, and will even side pass a little! Clips easily. Good for the farrier. Good ground and saddle manners! Wonderful on trails. The kids love her! A friend of mine meet me at McIntosh Reserve with both Big John and Sally. I bought them both! My kids have been riding her bareback with just a halter. Sally is wonderful!
