Easy to fit, perfect for top performance

This innovative redesign of the Kings Plate Extra Sound front has a splendid fit that makes the Alu Kings Plate Super Sound drop on most thoroughbred feet. With all features of the Extra Sound, the race plate is slightly wider than the normal Kings Plate Extra Sound. This means the race plate offers superior cover and support which eliminates sore heels. The toe design had been evolved to improve break over while the patented Sole Relief continues to protect against sole pressure and bruising. Super Pitch Plus has been introduced to the first three nail holes giving extra pitch. This unique pitch-approach allows the farrier to drive nails higher into the hoof wall even on flatter feet. The solid Radius clips are positioned completely on the outside, the rim (radius), of the shoe, is nicely tapered and has more than enough material at the base. Both plates are available with toe clip, the hind with side clips as well. The Super Sound front shoe also features the Heel Elevation. This subtle heel elevation will help farriers to achieve better anterior/posterior hoof balance of the hoof, while the wider heel design will improve the fit when extra cover and support are needed. This will also reduce stress to the back of the hoof. The concave section of the race plate continues to be deeper at the toe than at the heels. This gives the shoe more traction at the toe and also more support at the quarters. This hind shoe has the known Kerckhaert left-right pattern that is based on the anatomical and biomechanical principles. With this left and right pattern the hind shoe just drops on - saving time - plus the wider outside heel gives good cover to the foot. The first three nail holes on the outside branch also have Super Pitch Plus. This makes nailing easier and results in stronger and tighter clenches. The hind shoe had a slight bevel in the toe, with strong Radius toe clip to stop the spreading. The inside branch and heel is nicely bevelled to reduce brushing with the opposite limb. The foot surface has the standard Super Sound features, sole relief, grip pattern with a dull finish to keep the shoe in position. While the heels are smooth and shiny to allow heel expansion.
