WHAT MODALITY DID THE SPANISH HORSES HAVE THAT CONQUERED AND COLONIZED AMERICA?
These horses were Trote and Galope and other horses performed what was called Ambladura or Andadura and its derived movements. The numbers of each modality will never be known. It is important to note that the Spanish learned from the Arabs that stallions were the only horses they rode and the mares were brought along just for breeding purposes.
