Is this backstretch fodder or an interesting angle?

Dutrow spoke about them on Steve's show the monday (I think) after the Florida Derby.
He basically said, that he had no more worries about the horse's feet since he's used the shoes. I wouldn't expect him to say anything else, so I took it with a massive grain of salt.
He didn't expound on them too much, but it's worth checking out on the archives.
