It is a long and very powerful brace, originating on the lower row of carpalbones (bones of the hock in the hind leg) and on the upper endof the cannon between the heads of the two splint-bones, anddividing at the lower third of the cannon into two branches (c),which are attached one to each sesamoid bone. Below thesebones these two branches are prolonged obliquely downward andfor^vard on opposite sides of the long pastern to pass into theborders of the anterior extensor tendon of the toe at about themiddle of the long pastern (Fig. 14, h, page 32).. 30 HORSESHOEING.
