WES CHAMPAGNE: FARRIER TO THE STARS PEDIGREE INSIGHTS: by Dan Ross FINAL CROP OF ARCH No foot, no --an adage that's as true now as when the world's first plough-horse was sidelined with a stone bruise. And IS ON THE MARCH while that same adage could be repurposed for almost any part of the horse's anatomy, it's the foot that bears the load. The hero's yoke. Of all the farriers around the nation's backstretches toiling away on those four surprisingly delicate parts of the racehorse, few have been as highly sought-after for as long as Wes Champagne. Nearly 40 years ago, Champagne was an exercise rider who, too big to follow in the boots of his father, went to blacksmith school near Sacramento. Forty years later, he boasts a client list that started early on with Laz Barrera and never dipped in quality thereafter.

Despite this penalty, the Southern Hemisphere horses often triumphed in the past and several of them were to add to their laurels. One of them, the South African-born Victory Moon, later finished third behind Pleasantly Perfect and Medaglia d=Oro in the 2004 G1 Dubai World Cup, while the Argentine-bred Asiatic Boy was to chase home Curlin in the 2008 World Cup and finish second in the GI Stephen Foster H. Then there was the South African-bred Soft Falling Rain, who traveled to England to take the G2 Joel S. Another complication is that the race often features horses switching from turf to dirt, but that hasn=t stopped Northern Hemisphere-bred colts winning the last five editions. The latest to do so was Estihdaaf, an American-bred son of Arch who has shown distinct progress on the Meydan dirt, having won only one of his four starts on turf.

Fortunately, he turned his career around to the Final Crop of Arch is on the March extent that he has left a legacy of 40 graded/group winners, including 11 winners at the highest level. It has to be mentioned (cont. from p1) that he did so without covering mammoth books of mares, and The colt=s pedigree--and his 5 1/2-length his 17 crops averaged 66 foals.

While this son of Helmet inexplicably disgraced himself with his bronco display in the GI Kentucky Derby, he has since confirmed his status as a highly talented dirt performer with his victory over West Coast in the 2018 Dubai World Cup and his third behind Accelerate in the GI Breeders= Cup Classic. Estihdaaf still has some way to go before he merits comparison with Thunder Snow, who was already a Group 1 winner on turf before he landed the UAE 2000 Guineas. However, his pedigree is strong enough to encourage the belief that he will prove better than just a Group 3 winner. Together with Tax, winner of the GIII Withers S. earlier this month, Estihdaaf is a member of the final crop sired by Claiborne=s popular stallion Arch.

Better Lucky has three young colts by Tapit, the first of whom-- Kentucky Wildcat--was runner-up to Well Defined in the GIII Sam F. Davis S. last week. Better Lucky and Enrichment are granddaughters of Desert Stormer, a GI Breeders= Cup Sprint winner who once sold for $3.6 million. Desert Stormer was less effective as a broodmare, her best effort being Estihdaaf=s second dam Sahara Gold, winner of the GII Beaumont S. over seven furlongs. There is clearly plenty of speed in this family, but Estihdaaf appeared to stay well enough when he tried 1 3/16 miles on his first appearance on dirt. Estihdaaf is the latest indication that Ghostzapper is going to develop into an important sire of broodmares. Although his eldest daughters have just turned 12 years old, Ghostzapper already ranks as the broodmare sire of three Grade I winners, including a Triple Crown winner in Justify and a Breeders= Cup Sprint winner in Drefong. The third Grade I winner, American Gal, was also pretty good, winning both the GI Test S. and the GI Humana Distaff H. Altogether there are eight graded winners out of Ghostzapper mares, each of them by a different stallion, so they are going to have a lot of options.

Wes Champagne: Farrier to the Stars (cont. from p1) Four years ago, Champagne was the man responsible for American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile)'s Triple Crown-winning dancing shoes. Champagne repeated the dose this year, putting the aluminum glint to Justify (Scat Daddy)'s comet-like career. His most recent high-profile client? A little horse by the name of Accelerate (Lookin At Lucky), who didn't do too shabby for himself last year. The following are some of the topics Champagne touched on in a wide-ranging conversation with the TDN, from the evolution of shoeing during the nearly four decades he's been doing it, to some of the more innovative shoeing techniques he's helped pioneer, and the ever-changing understanding of racehorse soundness.

Tempering "If you had to ask me what the main difference between farriers of the past and today is, I would say we've become installers of pre-manufactured shoes versus hand-made horseshoes," Champagne said, pointing to the rise of the pre-manufactured shoe, designed, like human shoes, for different-shaped, different-sized horses. Not that he's complaining. "You can't beat the manufactured shoe. They're not off one one-hundredths of an inch. I can pull a shoe off, go right back in the same nail holes the next month if I need to. There's no way you can duplicate that."

Wes Champagne | Horsephotos

At the same time, these shoes have become heavier, sturdier over the years. More rigid. "They used to be much thinner, where you could just literally bend it in your hands. Now you can't budge it," he said. This has introduced some challenges, however. "You want that foot to be pliable," he said, working an actual hoof like a hunk of stiff rubber to illustrate his point. "Out of the factory, it=s just too rigid--it locks the foot up too much." And so, Champagne takes the hardness--the "temper"--out of the aluminum shoe in the forge. "By heating them in the fire and then cooling them really quick, you can make them soft, so you can bend them in your hands." It's still not a perfect system. Along the widest portion of the foot, the shoe should be "relatively stable and solid," he said, while the shoe around the heel should be more flexible. "No one's developed a shoe right now that's like that." Nevertheless, Champagne believes that by removing the stiffness from the modern shoe this way, he's seeing important benefits. Yes, "sprung" shoes--where a shoe snags and bends out of shape--are more common once the aluminum has had its "temper" removed. "But if I left the shoe solid, that might have been an injury instead."

TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 7 OF 10 • THETDN.COM TUESDAY • FEBRUARY 12, 2019

As shoes became heavier, more rigid, Champagne noticed an In the past, Champagne said, farriers tended to fit shoes "very increase in suspensory injuries. He believes this has something tight" and "wrap" them around the heel, which is where the to do with the role that suspensory tendons play--that of a shock greatest force on the foot during each stride is exerted. absorber in the lower leg. So, the more rigid the shoe is, the Whereas now, "we've learned what is most important is to get more it impacts the natural movement of the foot. And the the shoe back under the foot, and the heel of the shoe back more it impacts the natural movement of the foot, the more it under the widest point of the frog." alters the working mechanics of the suspensory tendons. As a result, "we get much less tendons than we used to get," The evidence, Champagne said, supports his thinking. Since he added. "They're rare now. I think that's one of the things that softening his shoes this way, he's noticed a "75%" reduction in has helped the horse more than anything." suspensory injuries. "I used to get them all the time," he said. "Upper suspensory, High Speed Pain lower suspensory. Now, I don't hear of it, or only very rarely. Likewise, conventional wisdom has been to over-trim the toe, There really is something to the pliability of the shoe." Champagne said. By doing that, however, "you start shifting the weight to the front of the limb. The pressure just doesn't go Length, Toe, Heel away--you're basically moving it from one area to another. Everything has to work in harmony." Compared to a few decades ago, racehorse feet are getting It's a practice that raises eyebrows, especially among trainers. bigger, Champagne said. "In the '80s, for instance, most horses But in most cases where the toe looks long, it rarely is--it's that had size five and sixes. Real small feet. Today, most everything's the heel is too short, Champagne said. a size seven and a lot of eights. Feet have gotten a lot bigger." "The first thing a trainer will tell you when they see a horse Whereas before, farriers largely considered small feet a like that, 'you've got to get the toe off.' They think you can just necessary foundation to soundness, that thinking no longer shape it anyway you want, like a block of wood. You can't. holds sway, he said. At least, in general. There's a lot of components inside the hoof and you have to On the East Coast, where "the tracks are a lot more forgiving," take that into consideration. The hoof capsule is like a shell farriers tend to trim the feet smaller, he said. But on the harder similar in thickness to a coconut. It's only so thick." West Coast tracks, "if you start cutting the feet too short, they Which leads to an interesting concept of Champagne's--what can't handle it," he said. "The main thing is just making sure he coins "high speed pain," the notion that horses only feel they're balanced and they have that support." certain types of pain when they're extended at full race-pace. "Dr. Allday [the world-renowned equine veterinarian] once told me, if a horse runs the first part of a race and he stops in the stretch, it's always one of three things: It's either they've lost their air, their hocks are hurting, or their feet are hurting. If their ankles, knees or anything else is hurting, they won't even run the first part of the race."

Horsephotos Is there a basic formula that governs the balance of the foot? The shoe should be centered in the very middle of the foot, "and you can gauge that by the frog," Champagne said. "The frog will never lie to you--it'll sit over the very center of the coffin bone." This is where the heel comes into play.

The long-held consensus behind the short-trimmed toe is that Blacksmith Buddy it promotes soundness. But that concept is fundamentally Another of Champagne's innovations is the Blacksmith Buddy, flawed, said Champagne. That's because, "if a horse gets a little an anatomically correct prosthetic leg with a detachable and sore it doesn't want to run that fast again. It starts to protect recyclable hoof, for use by trainee farriers.
