Strange movements?

Hi all!

My horsefield is doing this thing where he moves his two front legs forward and backwards plus his head simultaneously. He does it every now and then, just wondering if anyone has seen this behaviour before and what it means?

Do you mean when he is resting?
It's probably just his breathing and maybe sniffing the air around him to pick up scents.
If you can post a video we can see for sure if it's normal.
