Are the race organizers giving titanium racing shoes to all the entrants? It probably would be more appreciated, rather than just getting a cheap t-shirt. The two Hoofers in the background seem pretty pleased about things.
No horse can feel anything in a hoof. It's just a very thick, and inert, fingernail. But the SOUND might scare you to your bones. It does for me, which is why I have to excuse myself when a horse is being shod, just so I don't gross myself out. It's probably the same thing for Chuck.

Yes the sound is scaring him more than anything else I think, poor guy!
They're actually fitting a rubber sole to his hoof to protect the track's integrity, they wear out pretty quickly but it keeps the track even ^^
