1. A skewbald or piebald (US paint) horse whose attitude to life is such that it causes those who encounter him to doubt the soundness of mind of the horse and indeed the owner/rider.
2. A complete bellend of a horse who appears to be offended by mediocrity, so his decision-making and antics ensure his lack of talent in his chosen discipline is masked by the chaos, comedy and damage caused to property and person.
Insurance Claims person “So you hadn’t even left the yard and you expect me to believe that the horsebox just... fell apart?”
Owner “No. wait. The patchy twat took offence to the partition and galloped through the horsebox before he realised the front ramp wasn’t down.”
Insurance claim person. “Oh.... that’s fine. Claim approved. You probably should have mentioned that your horse is a patchy twat at the start of the call.”
A skewbald or piebald horse that spends considerably more time trying toembarrass it’s rider (often by throwing them off) than it does trying to clear a fence/complete a dressage test/follow any other instructions. Often ridden by a shit eventer.
