  • Horseshoes Made for Champions by ANDERS HOWMANN 2014-09-09 09:56:18
    Horseshoes made for champions BY ANDERS HOWMANN 2014-09-09 09:56:18 Edwin Kinney is the quiet winner of the Kentucky Derby. The owner of Thoro’Bred in Anaheim has had a stake in the race for decades. But his bets aren’t tied up in fickle odds. They’re nailed tightly into the hooves of rose-gilded champions. “We’ve been fortunate enough over the years to have our shoes on the legends of racing, including Secretariat, John Henry, Sunday Silence and probably the majority of Kentucky Derby winners in the past 20 years,” Kinney said. Even local darling California Chrome was sporting Thoro’Bred kicks as he won the Derby and the Preakness Stakes. The Anaheim company forges thousands of horseshoes for both racing and recreational horses at its La Palma Avenue factory. More than 500 shoe varieties are stamped from tons of aircraft-grade aluminum. The shoes are shipped to distributors and race tracks around the world. Thoro’Bred racing plates are a local favorite. About 90percent of the quarter and thoroughbred horses at Los Alamitos Race Course run with the company’s shoes, farrier Bob Rynearson said. Rynearson works as a standby shoer for the racecourse, making last minute adjustments to the plates before the horses step into the starting gates. He adjusts and hammers the pre-made shoes into hooves on the fly, sometimes with only a few minutes to spare before the starting gun. Nail hole placement, weight and material are critical to the highly specialized farrier craft, Rynearson said aboutOCRegister the horseshoe options available on the market.
