So since you go to both TWH and Saddlebred Shows I should not need to explain
my message. You already know where I was going with my Example as I have been
to TWH, Saddlebred, etc. shows. The placement of a good horse or
GSD should be judged on correct conformation and cadence movement.
Missed this part I guess. :-)

Ok as a judge, breeder
and owner of Tennessee Walking Horses and American
Saddlebreds... says who? (That they are incorrect?). The
walking horse move in a laterally based gait. They do not
trot. Essentially they have Two gaits.. a flat walk and a
canter. The running walk that the TWH was bred to do is an
extension of the walk.
In saddlebreds. They are a trotting breed. While they
are animated and collected, they are not supposed to trot
like those of a Hackney Horse.
The walking horse is built for comfort and a gait more
"forward going". The saddlebred is built for
animation, brilliance and presence. You know this as you
breed morgans which today are no more than refined versions
of the ASB.

Disagree... angles and conformation
are very important in correct movement.
Example: Saddlebred or Tennessee Walker can move with great
style and
movement but angles and conformation incorrect. Long down
pastern,
hocks touching ground is not correct but most of the time
places with
the judge for they are showing style and movement. Then add
a straight shoulder with neck placement incorrect.
