Western Pleasure
The official rules handed down from The National Horse Show Commissions, which is only one of several different
organizations defining the Tennessee Walking Horse, but the most widely recognized authority states that:

Entry shall reflect suitability of The Tennessee Walking Horse as a
western working horse, exhibiting qualities
suitable for ranch work.
The western pleasure horse works quietly exhibiting an exceptionally smooth, comfortable
ride without excessive action or animation. A good western pleasure horse should have a balanced flowing motion with
a free and easy gait. The horse should be ridden on a loose rein, and should exhibit a four beat walking gait with a
cadenced head motion (nod).

If the western horse has a fast, uncontrollable canter or requires pumping or bumping, he must be penalized.
