FormaHoof is the only horseshoeing method that can replicate the natural biomechanics of a perfect barefoot hoof, a revolutionary equine podiatry system developed to offer horse owners, their vets and farriers a highly effective, easy to apply and cost-effective solution to every hoof care challenge. Giving a horse an entirely new hoof and promoting healthy hoof growth, FormaHoof can enhance the rehabilitation process of the most common hoof-related pathologies, such as laminitis, white line disease, thin soles, low heels, foal limb and many others, or simply be used as a preventive and protective shoeing method.

FormaHoof will be also the Partner of the “Best Playing Pony” of the POLO RIDER CUP.

Alexander Papantonioiu, CEO, of FormaHoof Ltd, comments: “We are delighted to see our partnership with GAME POLO as the Official Hoof Health Partner for the POLO RIDER CUP going into the second round in 2022 and looking forward to a fantastic event. Our mission continues to focus on helping owners, farriers, vets, and trainers maintain healthy and sound hooves. FormaHoof provides an effective and efficient solution for all horses and disciplines and is the best solution to protect the ponies during matches and training from hoof injuries. Knowing hoof injuries can take a pony out of the game for a long period, FormaHoof provides accelerated rehabilitation and can be used as a first-aid solution for hoof related problems and disease or as a preventive method by mimicking the mechanics of a perfect barefoot hoof and supporting the whole horse.”

Olivier Godallier, President & Co-Founder of GAME POLO, comments: “We are very glad to be able to count on FormaHoof again for the second edition of the POLO RIDER CUP.
