Worked Magic in the round pen. His limp is improving. He just bobs his head a little at a trot. He lost a shoe last Saturday, was shod Tuesday and, if he keeps on improving, should be OK to ride sometime next week. He lost the off front and that is the foot / leg that he seems to favor. Dale said the foot was not as sensitive to hammering as it was last time and that he thought it might be sensitive to lifting that leg too high during shoeing. My view is that he lost the shoe and each day w / o the shoe he got more lame on that foot.
