Judges:
Alex Würsch, Switzerland
My name is Alex Würsch, I am 30 years old and I come from the geographical center of Switzerland. My father showed me his passion for the profession of farrier and so I wanted to learn it too. I completed my 4-year apprenticeship as a farrier in 2014. I then discovered the world and spent my work experience in several countries. The more I saw and the more farriers I got to know. By competing in different competitions, I maintain friendships and keep learning new things.
Since 2017 I have been part of the Swiss team and travel to competitions such as Horseshoeing Classics Kentucky, AFA Convention, Stoneleigh, European Championships, World Championships and smaller competitions. I have my own business, work one day a week in a horse clinic and regularly attend further training courses. I live in central Switzerland with my wife, dog and horse, who support me every day and have my back.
Jean Julien Remy, Belgium
Hello, my name is Jean-Julien Remy. I live in the south of Belgium on the Luxembourg border. I’ve been a farrier for 14 years now. My clientele is made up of horses of various disciplines. I took part in several competitions in Europe and also at the wcb. In 2024 I finished 17th at the Spruce Medow and in December I finished 9th at the European Championship in Spain. In farriery, I like to practice the basics a lot because I think it’s very important. I have a lot of admiration for several great champions of farriery. For me, Craig Trnka is the most incredible person I’ve ever met, because he’s not only a great farrier, but also a great person.
