Die Passage (Spanischer Tritt)

Gehört zu den "Schulen auf der Erde" und kann als Trab in Zeitlupe oder Schwebetrab bezeichnet werden
Die Passage ist als Imponiertrab des Hengstes in aufgeregtem Zustand in der Natur zu beobachten
Das Pferd schwingt die diagonalen Beinpaare energievoll vom Boden ab.
Das Auffußen wird leicht verzögert.

There is also Pagan MF, a 16.1 hh Silver Spanish Stallion with a huge personality, great sensitivity, incomparable balance and magic floating movement. This horse was performing Spanish Walk when only 3 months of age. Now at the age of 5, he shows off by performing faultless Spanish Trot, whilst at liberty.

Thank you! The text is about the Spanish walk/Passage, thus using the same name to describe the movement would not be good style.

agree  MMUlr: Yes, what is described here is the natural way of "showing off" of stallions - IMO the translation should not use Passage etc. (which is learned by the horse during dressage training).
