horse manure
Equine fecal matter
Horse manure is the fecal waste produced by horses, used as fertilizer for gardens and crops.
Like other animal droppings, it serves as a mild expletive or dismissal: That's horse manure and you know it.
The phrase is slightly more polite than horseshit, which it euphemistically replaces.
