YOUR HORSES’ WELFARE: OUR PRIORITY
Protecting Racehorse Welfare:
Equishox – The Front Runner in Elite Horseshoe Innovation
Equishox is proud to introduce a groundbreaking innovation that will revolutionise racehorse welfare and the horse racing industry. Our rubber-coated horseshoe has been developed to provide optimal safety and comfort for racehorses during intense competitions with the goal of significantly improving the well-being of race horses.
Champion your Horse’s Wellbeing. Equishox not only strives to provide cutting-edge products but we also advocate for responsible horsemanship.
The composite horseshoe is a testament to its commitment to promoting the overall well-being of racehorses and encouraging a more compassionate and sustainable approach to racing.
By supporting Equishox on our mission, owners, trainers, jockeys and veterinarians can demonstrate their dedication to racehorse welfare and the future of horse racing.
This is more than just a horseshoe. It represents our firm commitment to improve racehorses’ welfare and ensures a safer, more enjoyable experience for all.
“When I first encountered this innovative design, I couldn’t help but wonder why it hadn’t been developed sooner. Equishox shoes offer an incredible enhancement in stability, providing superior control over a horse’s limbs while significantly reducing the risk of accidents caused by slipping or skidding.
This is a game-changer for animal welfare, benefiting not just the horse but also the rider, trainer, and jockey. By minimising the occurrence of such injuries, we are taking a crucial step towards safer horse racing.” – Paolo Guasco – MRCVS MVB Dipl ISELP
Impact Absorption
The advanced rubber lining in Equishox horseshoe acts as a shock absorber, significantly reducing the force of impact on the hooves during each stride. This crucial aspect minimizes stress on joints and hooves, allowing racehorses to perform at their best without compromising their welfare.
Enhanced Control
Equishox bespoke tread pattern offers superior control on both hard and racing surfaces. This ensures stable footing, reducing the likelihood of slips or falls and safeguarding both the horse and jockey.
Lightweight & Durable
Unlike traditional horseshoes, Equishox rubber-coated design is lightweight and flexible, conforming to the natural movement of the hoof. This added flexibility decreases the risk of discomfort and potential injury during rapid accelerations and tight turns.
Self-Injury Reduction
The unique rubber coating has proven to reduce the likelihood of self-injury by overreaching and striking during training and racing. The softer, shock and vibration-absorbing horseshoe offers relief and also promotes a quicker recovery time from various back, leg and hoof issues.
