Horses are a lot like people , in that they have very distinct personalities . Some are totally serious, ad others are jokesters. It sounds like Simon is one of those.
I used to have a white Arabian that was a prankster. He would take the halter off the other horse, and then clang it on the metal gate to show me that he had Goldie's halter. When he saw me come out of the hisses to see what all the noise was, he hung his head over the gate and waved the halter at me.
He was like a kid, always looking for attention. One day, I forgot my jacket on the fence post, and he found it and was chasing poor Goldie around the pasture, waving the jacket at her as he ran with it in his teeth.
