GROUNDBREAKING HORSERACING INNOVATION
Unlock Elite Performance with Equishox
With the groundbreaking innovation of the Equishox racing plate, we believe this is a pivotal advancement in the future of horseracing. Backed by over 25 years of research, the product’s exceptional impact absorption, enhanced tread pattern and lightweight design offer racehorses the ability to perform at their peak while minimising the risk of injuries and discomfort, on and off the racecourse.
Where Tradition Meets Advancement: Four Strides Towards Safer Racing
Equishox composite racing plates are the result of over 25 years of extensive research, cutting-edge technology, and unique tread design specifically designed to address racehorse welfare concerns. Our vulcanised rubber coated horseshoe boasts several features that set it apart in the racing industry to be the frontrunner in the horseshoe innovation.
Crafted to endure the rigours of racing, this innovation decreases the need for frequent shoe replacements, making it a more cost-efficient alternative compared to conventional horseshoes.
“With 15 years of experience as a Farrier and the designer of Equishox, I’ve revolutionised the shape, tread, nail holes, weight, and materials of a traditional shoe to create Equishox. The design is both lightweight and seamlessly compatible with traditional shoeing methods, requiring absolutely no additional effort but delivering numerous welfare advantages.
Prioritising welfare is paramount in every discipline, and by making this small yet impactful change, we aim to foster a brighter future for the racing industry.” – Aron Tyler, Dip WCF – Farrier with over 15 years experience.
Engineered for Racehorses : Backed by Science
Impact Absorption
Enhanced shock absorbing technology. The rubber coating significantly reduces the concussion on the horse’s hooves and provides superior comfort, reducing the risk of injuries and hoof fatigue.
Enhanced Control
Designed with a bespoke tread pattern for enhanced stability whilst racing. The unique tread pattern combined with the rubber coated horseshoe prevents horses from slipping.
Lightweight & Durable
Lighter in weight than the traditional steel racing plate and crafted from high-quality material, Equishox has exceptional durability and longevity. Designed to withstand the stresses of racing and daily wear, this reduces the frequency of shoe replacements making them more cost-effective than the traditional horseshoe.
Less Injuries
Softer compound material than aluminium decreases the impact of self-injury from overreaching and striking.
