How would you shoe this horse ??

[vthorseshoe]

I am looking to buy me a speed horse and think I have found the fastest horse from here<(the USA) to England .
I think he would leave all the others sitting at the gates at the Darby.(look out Smitty) and the Derby here in Ky.

But because of his uniqueness I would like the advice of all the expert and professional farriers on this site to give me their suggestions.

Picture will follow;

Would you shoe him different in the UK than here in the USA ?

Nope... that there is a Kentucky Bred Eighth Horse. :D

Saddle fit is difficult.

Don't rocker the toes. Horse will fall over.

Bruce, you're a hoot!

When you gonna show website pricing on your new "teaching to stand" DVD's?

Is it true that the video starts with "stick ace injection here...". :eek:

Just kidd'in. Looking forward to getting a copy.

Thanks for sharing!

He isn't JUST a quarter horse.
He is a GOOD quarter horse who DOESN'T have TEA CUP feet !!!!!!
His 2 hooves are larger than the ones on a teacup quarter horse.

He is the offspring of a quarter horse and an Ostrage.
He not only can run but he lays great eggs. ;)

Sounds fair Bruce. I'll either catch up with you at the summit or I'll order via your website.

Mark, When you going to be a man and show some of your work rookie?

Bruce I would shoe his front feet and use hind shoes with medial and lateral support, rolled toe and frog support.

Phil,
That might very well work but whats the standard canned response around here? "Lower the heels and set the toe back" Right?

I don't think this horse will pull his shoes, so you can stand him up and not worry about breakover. Go for perimeter fit and extended heels. :D
