Mount speeds?

[Groguzzler]

I noticed from a handful of videos that there seemed to be multiple mount speeds. Can you, for example, coax your horse to walk, trot, or gallop? Will prolonged galloping affect your mount?

You can walk, trot, and gallop on a horse yes. Galloping requires holding down the shift key and prevents the use of mounted combat and drains the horses stamina to where it cannot gallop anymore, it is essentially mounted sprinting.
