I have no idea ...I don't talk to trainers...at least not like some others around here....but I guess nothing would surprise me, if the horse were going to be running over it all the time. It wouldn't make sense to experiment with hoof angles for one run...and I too have seen some messy outcomes when farriers try to play god and change a horse's natural angle...my own horse was a complete disaster when i bought him, it took 8 months to get his feet right.
