ichnology paper help



Hi everybody,
  I have a slightly different paper request, I know I have the paper
in my collection I just for the life of me can not think of who wrote
it or what it was called. What I do know is that the author discusses
the likely-hood of trackways being preserved in the fossil record by
looking at the example of a horse (draft horse I believe). He (I
think) talks about how a modern horse can take something on the order
of 10,000 steps in a day and then goes on to look at the percentage of
those steps that would produce tracks and then the percentage of those
that would fossilize, and so on. I suspect that it is an older paper
but I can not be sure. Anyways if anybody knows the paper I am
rambling on about if you could let me know that would be great.
