Got to a show last Sunday tied the horses up they ate their alfalfa for a few hours and stood there until it was time to warm up--- this was literally 4 hours of waiting- When we went to saddle up my horse kept stomping at flys and everytime his foot hit the ground he'd make a gurgling snortish sound... it was very weird I thought could he be bleeding in his lung or have fluid in there? Even thought maybe hay was stuck in his throat? he took a small drink and it seemed to stop, but I'm worried it could be a bigger problem?

My gelding will sometimes blow air out of his nose when he is stomping his foot to get rid of flies. It sometimes makes a high-pitched whistling noise. He only does this when the flies are thick.

My mare will occasionally grunt if shes been stomping really hard at flies. I have done a lesson after shes been grunting and she was fine and it went away.
