Rubber vs. Leather Padding for Racehorses: Trainer Insights
Question hello sir. when should a trainer use "RUBBER PADDED" and "LEATHER PADDED" shoes on racehorses?
Answer hi well leather has been used as a pad for many years now. it is actually up to the individual trainer experience what he decides to do on that question. i always use to use leather , but it use to compress too fast and it wouldn't last that long, but the rubber seemed to last longer and do a better job. thanks ED HESS
