Horses can't burp, I'm assuming what you're reffering to is a vice called windsucking. Not every horse does this, just ones that have developed a vice in the stable from ie being bored or hungry and sometimes even copying other horses. There are many other vices horses can develop such as: box walking, weaving cribbing ect.

Once a horse starts windsucking it wont stop as it makes the horse feels good, it sends endorphins to the brain which causes this feeling. But it can cause serious colic!

Do horses burp?

Yes, just like us, horses burp to, I know because a horse burped at me once. Answer2: No, the vast majority of horses cannot burp. This is due to the same reason they cannot throw up. The shape of the esophagus and the strength of the sphincter muscle at the opening to the stomach typically prevent burping and throwing up. However some horse may have a weak sphincter muscle or an overly straight esophagus and can burp/throw up, but this is extremely rare.
