Today's comparison shots are Poppys; as usual, the earlier photo is at the top and the most recent photo below.
Poppy had a better landing than the other horses when she arrived and so has been able to work on hard surfaces as well as in the school and on the tracks. Because her feet were better initially, however, the changes are less obvious.
The clearest difference is her heels which are moving back to a more supportive position.
It looks from this angle as if her foot is becoming slightly more balanced but we need longer to be sure.
Slightly different angles which make comparison tricky, sorry. If anything though she is loading the palmar hoof more than she was.
Again, the hoof looks more balanced in the recent shot but there is still a way to go. it would be good to see if her medial hoof is more supported in the next set of photos.
