Since like poles repel, the two horseshoe magnets have like poles facing each other, hence they repel each other and therefore they will not come in contact

The reason the two horseshoe magnets wouldn't touch is because they are the same sides/ force. The saying of opposite attract becomes the opposite meaning, similar object repel.
