It's very difficult to tell a horse's age especially when they are in their teens. However vets usually figure out a horse's age by looking at their teeth. If the teeth are worn down and not in the best condition (yellowish, missing teeth, etc.) then the horse is probably older maybe 20+ years. If the horse's teeth are whiter and not worn down as much, then the horse is probably 10+ years. It's hard to tell. Vets can't give a horse an exact age, so they usually estimate as best they can. Older horses tend to be whiter, skinnier (less muscle and fat), and they might even have sway back (withers on their back are more defined and the back starts to slope inward).
