Hi List
In response to the boots question
We have successfully used Old Mac boots for driving.  We have used them in a 
small show, no problem.  We have even used them to cover both front feet when 
we lost a shoe on one and still had the other, used the Old Macs on both fronts 
(1 still with shoe) and continued on with the show.
I have used them on one horse in a pair and not the other, didn't get any 
interference.  Watch the inserts tho.  I have pretty large sizes (5/6) and they 
seem to be a bit too wide, but when we put in inserts, the horse brushed the 
inside backs so much, we wore off a strap.
I asked a judge about them as I was using them to protect one horse's poor feet 
(usually shoes, but fixing a problem at the time) and they were pretty 
non-committal.  We received no penalties.  I know Muffy Seaton used them for 
awhile and we had her advice too.
We keep a couple pairs in the trailer now for emergencies.
Horses who wore them seemed to accept them with no problems or worries (they 
were Fjords after all!)
