Well, I don't do anything more than you, and I don't remember the last  
time my horse had a case of thrush.  Caisson hasnt had a case since I  
bought him.  I had Shadow his whole life (25 years), and I really  
can't remember a problem.

I tend to be very bad about picking out feet.  I will check them after  
a ride for rocks, but I don't pick them out before.

My guy is in a 24x24 pipe corral.  I usually put in sand before  
winter, as it helps considerably with the mud.  Yes, I have stall  
mats, and I sweep them regularly so he isn't eating off sand.

I'm in the San Diego area - Lakeside.  The base is a silty dirt that  
goes to powder in the summer, and slick goo in the rain, so the sand  
helps with both mud and urine.
