This question comes up from time to time.

One of the components in horse sweat is a protein that has surfactant (soapy)
qualities - that's why it's foamy.

It's a specific protein, that takes a while to build back up in the cell.
So, so if the horse is sweating on a very regular basis, and depleteing it,
the sweat will reflect this by how clear (or not) it is.
