century it was the only means of transportation on the island Its still used to herd sheep throughout the interior But today much of its use is for pleasure Ms Hood met the Icelandics in Europe where they are one of the most popular pleasure horses In Germany they are so numerous there are special shows just for Icelandics They compare to the popularity of the American Quarter Horse This year they were voted the little darlings of the Equitane gigantic horse show and equineproducts display held biannually in Germany Great Race won by mules During the American Bicentennial several teams of Icelandics competed in the Great American llorse Race and the Pony Express Race They proved to be hardier than most of their competitors including the legendary Arab but What makes the Icelandic still

dropped in on Susan Hodgson and Robyn Hood at their farm west of Schomberg These two sisters breed Icelandics horse they advertise as the only naturally fivegaited horse The Icelandic horse is officially classified as because of its height But it gives the impression of being horse Its large head wide chest and solid body makes it im But the law has kept the breed pure Historians claim that their isolation has allowed the Icelandic to retain many characteristics of original pony stock They suggest that the tolt was the natural gait of the descendants of the Tarpan trait lost as these first European ponies were bred to size necessary to carry the mailclad knights In Iceland the government controls breeding Poor foals are slaughtered at the end of the season At shows judges evaluate the stock on their gaits con formation and temperament The judge rides each horse before making the final decision Icelandic horsemen dont ride their charges until they are five years old and allow the horses bones to mature without stress So hardy is the Icelandic that he frequently enjoys useful life when he is 30 or older Mrs Hodgson and Ms Hood praise their horses They can do better than keep up to 15 hand horse claims Hood The sisters bought their first five Icelandics in 1976 from group that Ms Hood had assisted during the Great American Horse Race In 1977 they imported eight more from Iceland and got two more from third sister in California in 1978 The two women now have about 25 of the breed Its difficult to compete on competitive trail rides says Mrs Hodgson The Icelandics
