Ridecamp: RE: [RC] Whorls

I've got a gelding with 2 whorls on each side of the neck. The first one is
at the high crest of the neck and the second is at the middle of the neck.
They pretty much match on each side.

He also has a whorl at the throatlatch and in the center of his chest. One
nice whorl in the center of his forehead between his eyes.

This guy is full of attitude and spooky. Getting much better with training
but still...am I sunk?
