prancing horse
High-stepping steed
A prancing horse is a horse rearing on its hind legs with forelegs raised, a posture suggesting spirit and vitality.
The image appears in heraldry and logos—most famously as the emblem of Ferrari, the Italian sports car manufacturer.
The phrase can also describe any horse moving with high, springy steps: A prancing horse led the parade.
