I had the pleasure of working in partnership with Colin for a number of years in Newmarket, before his wanderlust took him on to new ventures in Abu Dhabi. Colin began his career as an army farrier in his homeland of South Africa, has taken part in international competitions, shod racehorses on multiple continents, and became the first South African AWCF. It was great to catch up with my old friend and colleague.
