The Annual Horse Show 2009 held in Penang Turf Club featured many interesting events and one of them was the Farriery competition. As explained in Wikipedia, farrier “is a specialist in the trimming and balancing of a horse's hoof and the placing of shoes to the horse's foot”. In this competition, we see more of the molding of the horse shoe instead.
