What is the principal part of a horse?
And, the answer is...
The MANE part (main part).
Wonderful. I rather enjoyed today's crop of answers, but I think the real stand-outs were Darcy, Dashwood and Shawn. Well done, All! Come back next week for another of Mr. Punch's Puzzles!

Ah, horse sense.
The principal part of a horse is, when in a play about horses (that is, horseplay), is to convince the audience that he is a horse. Most horses know this. Many human actors do not.
