Horse that doesn't want barbers near his moustache

A horse which has grown a curly, golden moustache is refusing to let grooms shave it off. Alfie (10, pictured) is said to flee if he thinks he is in danger of getting even a trim.

The horse also refuses to let staff at the stables in Gloucestershire into his stall there for fear that they will remove his whiskers.

The moustache may look somewhat incongruous given its fair colour compared to his black and white colouring.
Moustaches are rare on horses although they are noted among Friesians, which are said to be able to grow ones to rival surrealist painter Salvador Dali's.
