Sombody told me that they were told straight from the horses mouth, if not from the mouth then where?

What on earth are you talking about?

Straight from the horse's mouth

Meaning: From the highest authority.

Origin: In horse racing circles tips on which horse is a likely winner circulate amongst punters. The most trusted authorities are considered to be those in closest touch with the recent form of the horse, i.e. stable lads, trainers etc. The notional 'from the horse's mouth' is supposed to indicate one step better than even that inner circle, i.e. the horse itself.

It is a 20th century phrase. The earliest printed version I can find of it is from the USA and clearly indicates the horseracing context - in the Manitoba Morning Free Press, January 1913:

"I got a tip yesterday, and if it wasn't straight from the horse's mouth it was jolly well the next thing to it."

Well since horses can't really talk from the mouth doesn't make sense either. Maybe from the hooves if they are Mr. Ed and he tapped the answer out.

Well, there ain't but two ends to a horse.

They forgot to tell that you are also a "horse's pattoot "

Well then they weren't told by the lion's tigers or bears.

If it was not from the mouth, it had to be from the s* hole

Oh! You made me laugh out loud!

Thank you.

told by a horse?? i don't think so....

You know the answer to that, from the Times, of course.
