Едем размашистой рысью.
Multitran has "extended trot" and I have no idea what that is. Is extended referring to time or are the riders spread out from each other? |
| | | English translation:extended trot | Explanation:
Extended trot: an engaged trot with long strides, where the horse stretches its frame, lengthening the strides to the greatest degree possible. The horse has a great amount of suspension. The back is round and the horse's head just in front of the vertical.

Asker: You're right - and my author who rode horses would have known the term even if I did not!
