Farrier Sam Dracott

Sam Dracott is a highly skilled UK-based registered farrier with 13 years of experience and he showcases the artistry of his daily work on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

Sam has skilfully placed his craft on the ‘content creation map’ and reaches millions of viewers worldwide.

At Your Horse Live, he plans to educate owners on all things farriery, including what to do in an emergency (such as a twisted shoe), how to look after hooves, and health issue signs to look out for.

The best thing about our How To Yard is that horses come too, and Sam will be working with a horse during his session.

Look out for Sam at the Red Gorilla Meet & Greet too (timings to be confirmed).
