I've had a chance to look at the footage I took at the weekend, and here is a short clip of the new boy in his wedges.
The two things to look out for are the toe first landing in front and his stride length - he is just about tracking up in these shots, but his movement is rather pokey - its easier to see in the real time footage, but you almost get the feeling that he is "marching on the spot" rather than stretching out.
I will try to get some comparative footage and photos up as soon as I can :-)
Improved his lameness??? Nah, that horse is just equally lame in each front foot! It doesn't look anything like my definition of "sound" except that it isn't actually limping.
ReplyDeleteIt'll be fascinating to see how he walks in a week or three.
