Where I'm from, a daisy clipper is a horse with low leg action whose hooves remain very close to the ground as he travels. i've never heard it called daisy stepping.

Like many hunters, "daisy cutters" have a very long and flat stride. They don't pick their hooves off the ground too far. It has a smooth appearance, but not the same action as a dressage horse. They are called daisy cutters because their low moving hooves are said to clip the heads off of daisies.

The daisy cutter action is a long, low action without much lift off of the ground. Seen in all show ponies. I hate show ponies because of the way they move and also their lack of bone.

It's "daisy-CUTTER".....out low....as opposed a high snappy action...opposite to Hackney.
