    With the preponderance of bling in equestrian gear these days, I've often wondered how long it will be before someone actually does inlay some gemstones on their horseshoes as well.

    I jokingly suggested it once to a group of missus' mates (dressagey bunch), it was enthusiastically endorsed, :rolleyes:

    Anthony as a very Wise man said long ago, " It has all been done before!" as to the bling you speak of , we used to glitter up hoofs when I was with Ringling Bros Barnum and Bailey Circus...spot lights hit them and the sparkle goes all over the arenas we played...

    I let the brass run down the toe clips from the borium on a carriage horse I used to do. Walking around in the grass would shine 'em up pretty.
