3. This horse is able to freely swing the hind leg forward through the hip joint. Notice how far under the body the leg has landed. The other hind leg is coiling in order to support the horse and then push off the ground. The horse is lengthening the canter stride. Notice that the back is up and the pelvis is under, allowing the hind leg to swing forward.
