Hi Valletta,

Poor boy, he's been having a bit of a rough time lately.

Based on the rads, the trim can take a lot of that toe away. There is also a  lot of flaring all the way around, which is part of the the white line issues you are seeing. Because he is an IR horse, all discussions - including hoof ones - should remain on the main ECIR group.

I can get you mark-ups for his next trim but it would be helpful if you could provide a full set of photos for all four feet, as trim issues are rarely confined to only one foot. Here's what's needed:

The lateral and dorsal shots should include the cannon bones and Rego should be standing as squarely as possible on the foot being photographed. Only need the dorsal, lateral, sole and sole plane for each one. Just post to the main group once the pix are up.
