Which category is confirmed through tracking?

Tracking is primarily used to assess a horse's movement, particularly in relation to structural correctness. This involves evaluating whether the horse's limbs and body structure function properly during motion. When a horse tracks straight and evenly, it indicates that the horse has good structural alignment of its legs and body, which is crucial for its overall soundness and performance.

Structural correctness encompasses various aspects of the horse's anatomy, including how the legs are placed and how the horse moves as a whole. Tracking can reveal incongruities, such as uneven strides or misplaced limbs, that might suggest underlying issues with the horse's conformation or health.

In contrast, while type refers to the breed and its characteristics, balance relates to distribution of the horse's weight and center of gravity, and condition refers to the horse's fitness and body condition score—these factors are not directly assessed through tracking alone. Therefore, structural correctness is the most accurate category confirmed through the horse's tracking movements.
