This will depend on what is going on at the time. If the horse is eating and begins slobbering it may have a dental issue or have ingested something caustic. If it was in the pasture grazing it might have ingested clover which can cause drooling. If the horse has a bit in it's mouth it again might have dental issues or the bit is made of a certain type of metal that encourages salivation. You should have the horse checked by a equine vet just to be on the safe side.
