World Equestrian Games Lexington Kentucky Farrier

The Lexington Kentucky newspaper The Lexington Herald Leader wrote recently that the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games has selected a Lexington Kentucky group as the official farriers for the event.  The group selected was the American Farriers Association.

The association will begin providing their services at the Kentucky Horse Park approximately 2 weeks prior to the event starting, and through the closing day of the games (From September 11, 2010 through October 10, 2010).  In the 2 weeks prior to the games starting, 2 farriers will be on site assisting riders and their horses with their needs.  However, once the WEG actually starts, up to 6 farriers will be available and providing their services for the 16 day event.

Costs associated with their services will vary and be on a horse by horse basis depending on what is needed.

Congratulations to the American Farriers Association!
