The Bṛhatsaṁhitā (chap 92. 1-14), the Bṛhadyogayātra (22. 1-21) and the Yogayātrā (XI. 1-14) deal with the movements neighing, prancing, striking the ground with hoofs, postures of horses from which lucky or unlucky consequences are to be inferred. But they do not describe any śānti and therefore are passed over. The Agnipurāṇa (chap 290, 1-8), the Viṣṇudharmottara (II. 47. 1-42), Baud. gṛhyaśeṣasūtra I. 19 and Hemādri (on vrata, vol. II. pp 1031-36 taken from Śālihotra) describe a śānti which averts all dangers to horses and removes their diseases.
