That's personally how I do it, it takes a bit of stamina but it's really consistent.

Also: 3 gallops?

I alt-strum everything, the part you have to watch out for is the

then it switches to

The one missing note can trip you up and make you overstrum.

If you have trouble with the gallops you can abuse the timing window and play it like

im fine with the gallops, just i get messed up with the chords. I have the tendancy to slide my thumb off the strum bar :\

I find that it's much easier to stay in rhythm if you do the way ShadowDude posted, as opposed to just alt-strumming through the whole thing. It's easier because every down strum is evenly spaced and on the beat, with some upstrums in between. In fact that's a pretty good formula for strumming almost any pattern. It only breaks down when it gets REALLY fast, like in War Ensemble.
