The horse could be indicating a number of things with this expression. A curious horse will often use an expression similar to the one described to indicate that it is not a threat to another horses foal.

It can also be a signal to either a friend horse or human that a bout of mutual grooming is being sought. Mutual grooming is used among horses to strengthen friendship bonds. This practice is often transferred to familiar humans and indicates a high level of trust
