You ought to be able to tell the pace at which a horse has been going directly you see the tracks.
At a walk the horse makes two pairs of hoof prints—the near (left) hind foot close in front of near forefoot mark, and the off (right) forefoot similarly just behind the print of the off hindfoot.
At a trot the track is similar but the stride is longer.
The hind feet are generally longer and narrower in shape than the forefeet.
