Re: barefoot horses

["ruprecht" <ruprecht@tidepool.com>]

I did 2 or 3 days of and XP with easy boots on front feet, it was because on
the 2 or 3 day I had lost a front shoe that just did not want to stay on
even when replaced,  We did complete sucessfully all 5 days on that horse.

Feather showed no sign of complications.

 5,000 miles barefoot.
