ok really stupid question r.e shoes vs barefoot

Thank you - how kind!

Yes, indeed that's a very good result. I don't like front studding - i think it's stupidly dangerous. The reason I made this suggestion was that I noticed the question arising at some point way back in the thread and I thought that might be a reasonable compromise for those who were wedded to their studs! Has anyone any experience of horses being shod behind only?
 
Photos are great! Typical navicular rehab part way to becoming sound:

With an event line so huge that you could balance a craft knife on it.

I'll be "some people" think I stuck it there with blue-tack :) :) :)

I just heard that this horse won best novice Iberian and best in Championship at Warrington show yesterday! Not bad for a horse 24 hours off being put to sleep just over a year ago by a caring owner because of the pain he was still in after having been treated with remedial shoes, adequan, tildren and hyaluronic acid :) :) :)
