[RC] Prophet's Thumbprint - k s swigartHeidi Larson said: It is said that he pressed his thumb into their necks, marking them. Horses with thumbprints are thought to be good horses. Whereas in reality it is probably caused by some kind of blunt force trauma to the muscle. My stallion "developed" a prophet's thumbprint in his neck after he got kicked there by an uninterested mare. On male horses you often find them on the neck or chest (from having been kicked). On mares you may be more likely to find such a dent in the back end (because two mares were kicking at each other). kat Orange County, Calif. :) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
