Charters Towers heat: 1
Old fella farrier: still undefeated.

Happy horse? Tick.
Happy owner? Tick.
Sweaty old bloke cursing the sun but still shoeing like a bloody champion? Double tick.

If dedication had a postcode, it’d be 4820.

Looks like they are whispering sweet nothings in each other ears

Farrier’s Prayer
Dear Lord,
Grant me patience, strong rum, and a horse that pretends it’s been handled before.
