I've just realized that a horse foot is just one big finger. So the inevitable question is: Is it the middle finger? (media.kbin.social)

Yes it is the middle finger/toe.

Horses have 5 fingers/toes in their genetic, but only the middle ones develop. The reason is that one finger/toe has advantages for a huge weight and wanting to run quite fast.
