Kings Plate Extra Sound -

FRONT SHOE

This design is made from a wider section than the standard Kings Plates. This gives the front foot more cover and support with excellent results on many racehorses.

Trainers and Farriers will welcome this race plate, because comfort for the horse is an important part of their success. On the foot surface the seating out is increased and extends forward towards the back of the clip to avoid pressure in the toe. The nail holes are positioned coarser than the standard Kings Plate to produce strong nailing and the toe is designed a little flatter, to keep the toe short when fitting.

That's why it's Extra Sound

The left and hind designed hind plate is based on principles understood by Kerckhaert a long time ago and used in many of their hind shoes.
The Extra Sound hind plate is the world's first drop forged shoe in a left and right pattern. The outside branche is a little longer than the inside branch and is wider from the quarterback.

The outside heel is wider to give the foot more cover and support.
The inside branch is beveled to reduce the risk of brushing and has a tapered inside heel for close fitting.
