I agree with Danzig, they know if they've been beat. Also, they sulk when one of their pasture buddies goes missing.
Now, here's a question...did you ever notice that the grooms bringing horses over from the barn to the paddock always are looking down?
Is there something that they don't want to step in?
btw...did you ever notice where a horse's ears are when it takes a dump?

On it's head?
