Welcome to our online catalogue.
Over the years Thoro’Bred has lead all competitors in new product innovation starting with our racing plates, Queens Plate®, Queens Plate XT, Silver Queen, Legacy®, Level Grip®, Quarter Horse, Wedge® and Plain Hind. Our new and patented Turbo® fronts and hinds provide grip, not slip, and feature a low profile to reduce leg injuries. Since 1949 our company’s slogan “World’s Finest Racing Plates” is Thoro’Bred’s guarantee to our customers.
In lightweight competition shoes our barrel racing Sidewinder® leads all others recording championships in the NBHA, WPRA, Josey Reunion & Jr. World. We have added our new Lite Champion II series with a new shape that requires very little effort by the farrier and compliments our original Lite Champion’s design for the Hunter – Jumper market. We also produce the Natural Balance Shoe® (NBS) and World Racing Plate® (WRP) under license, and both are very popular shoes.
Recently we've brought to market a new Glue-On system that requires only two minutes to set up and features our Leg Saver® Pad for shock and impact relief. It is called the “Sticky Shoe Kit” and easy to use. Twice as fast as nailing, excellent for thin walls or reducing nail irritation, economical, saving you and your farrier both time and money over other glue on methods.
