I had a filly once that just loved to trot backwards, never trained her to do it as far as I could tell. I always wondered if she could canter backwards, too. But to canter backwards seemed more than her brain could handle, and she could already trot backwards very, very fast! Waiting for the real answer. Pamela Hall
