It's a crest. Usually found on stallions or overweight horses. Even when an overweight horse has returned to a healthy weight, the crest will stay. I'm not sure why.Most Hunter trainers and judges will tell you that a crest is not unhealthy, in fact it shows good care, and that it flatters the horse, making them carry their head lower without losing the "round" look a Hunter is supposed to have.
