They Can Make the Difference Between Winning and Losing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Thoroughbred horse racing is a sport that is all about speed. How fast they can get out of the gate. How quickly they can get into good position. How fast the first ⅛, the first ¼, the first half mile,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the first mile. A fraction of a second in a horse race can be,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], literally,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the difference between winning and losing. Between the winner's share and the second and third place share. It wasn't always this way, but nowadays in major stakes races a horse can get a share of the purse by finishing fifth or better,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so the bottom line is this: in horse racing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], speed is everything. And since speed is everything, then it naturally follows that the shoes of a race horse, and how light or heavy they are,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], are critically important.
Like a human sprinter (Usain Bolt) would be a good example) that uses shoes that are so light they literally feel like feathers in order to simulate the feeling of running barefoot, the idea for a race horse is for their feet to feel as light as possible,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as if they were running in the wild,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], while still being protected.
Outside of horse racing, sturdy steel shoes are used, and they provide horses with tremendous comfort and, most importantly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], support. This is all accomplished at the expense of speed, because a plow horse certainly isn't being timed. On the other hand, race horses have that lighter, but nearly just as sturdy stuff called aluminum. The front and hind legs on a race horse are handled differently. An aluminum shoe called a racing plate is attached to the front legs. The hind legs need more support since they bare more weight, so a shoe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], mostly aluminum, known in the racing industry as a cauk, or a caulk, is embedded with steel to help in terms of wear resistance and improve the abrasion rate on the shoe. The greatest stress that a thoroughbred horse will encounter while running a race,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], from the standpoint of the legs and the shoe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is on the turns. Centrifugal force on an 1100 pound animal with such a massive body on such spindly legs while running all out and turning at the same time explains why the shoes on the hind legs need a little steel in them. So the next time you're waxing nostalgic and watching that 1973 Kentucky Derby with Secretariat,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the sloppy 1977 Belmont when Seattle Slew clinched his Triple Crown, or the more recent 2009 Breeders' Cup Classic in which the amazing mare Zenyatta beat the boys,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you will know that their shoes had a little something to do with their historic victories.
