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.
3. Generally a shite eventer.
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.”
