Its a blemish on the back of the hind legs.... Caused by strain i think

Galloping through plough etc....

i saw that advert and thought the same thing

 

[Digger123]

sprain of the plantar tarsal ligament which runs down the back of the hock. You usually end up with a lump forming.It can cause lameness on the onset but usually the horse comes sound.It is considered more of a blemish than an actual problem
