## "Shoeing a racehorse to victory is addictive"

Matthew Martin has only one goal in mind: to help horses achieve their full potential, especially when it comes to high-profile races. “I*t’s not just about shoeing the horses, but also about solving problems that help them win important races*,” he says. “*Good shoeing means balance; a well-balanced dressed-up hoof, a perfect fit is essential. I’m always happy when we get through an effective shoeing - preparation - with no soundness issues*.”  
Matthew’s passion for horses and their feet started when he was a kid. He grew up around harness horses and race horses and ended up training to be a farrier. After 22 years of experience, he’s an expert at shoeing racehorses. Matthew’s helped a lot of horses get to the top and still enjoys the wins. “*Knowing the horse is essential; what is its history. Understanding if there are racing or soundness issues allows you to shoe accordingly, which is crucial for the horse. I especially like working with the Kerckhaert Alu Kings Fast Break ES plate. It provides the horse with excellent breakover and good heel support*.”

#### UNDEFEATED!

The legendary and unbeaten Group 1 racer Black Caviar competed 25 times for 25 wins. An undefeated record! Matthew was her farrier for each race, ensuring she had the best possible performance. He used the Kerckhaert Alu Triumph front and the Kerckhaert Alu Kings Plate Extra Sound hinds.

“*She never lost a shoe!*”, Matthew Martin
