I remember Bluegrass Cat quickly wobbling in 2nd in the Tampa Derby missing a shoe . A buddy of mine had a horse lose a shoe 1/2 way through a race . We wondered why he lost 3 lengths at the 1/2 dropping to 6th but still came back and finished 2nd .

I wonder what happens to the cast shoes ? I hope they are removed when the track is harrowed .
