Well, seeing as she has been in training with one of the better known trainers... I'm sure she has been shod before
Surely you don't think she could have been raced like that?
I have a new project :)

well if she has been with one of the better known trainers why has she got feet in such a neglected state?

She last ran at the end of March, stayed in training for a bit and been on let down livery for the last 3 months.

She has a pretty face. Is there something odd about her hocks and knees or is it just the photos?

She's actually quite straight, just gangly
and not very keen on standing still and being photographed

Very nice!
What on earth is all this fuss about her feet? They just look a bit long in the toe to me, I'm sure your farrier will be able to sort her out (with or without shoes, lol)

well, thanks for the good luck wishes.
I think you misunderstood me, though. I'm not on my high horse, just don't see a point in either wondering why her feet are the way they are or slagging off the trainer/staff/previous owner/whoever about it
She has overgrown feet, she will get trimmed and job's a good un.

Thanks, I'm sure he will, not that he won't moan about it, mind you
Isn't that part of the job description?

I would imagine so, judging by the amount of moaning he does... he's on some sort of commission/bonus scheme

Nice mare, my farrier likes to moan a lot about my ex-racehorse despite the fact he regularly hunts his own ex-racehorse!

I agree! I hope you have great fun on her, all this talking of bare feet and shoes makes me want to go on a shoe shopping spree

do flip flops count? i don't really do sandals
ohhh now heres a thought, get your farrier to cut a little wedge out of horses front feet and she could wear flip flops too

I have unshod horses, I go unshod myself a lot of the time, I do wear sandals, I find flipflops bloody uncomfortable, flowers have been known to get into my long hair, I own flared jeans and hippy tops. I don't care if you call me a hippy, just pass me that spliff!
Nice horse, I find feeding my farrier cake shuts up any tendency to moan as he doesn't talk with his mouth full In fact I'd better burger off and make a cake as he's coming tomorrow!

JT, do you swing crystals?
I feed my farrier bacon sandwiches and jaffa cakes, he seems to moan less that way
