Since the poster hasn't clarified, I thought I'd share this fascinating tidbit:

My wife (who was excited to learn the phrase for "bug report" from this 
message) explains that "horse-top" or "on a horse" is a Chinese idiom meaning 
"fast", so the responder was telling the OP to describe their problem better, 
and if they do so, it will be resolved quickly.

I have to admit I'm a bit disappointed; I thought that maybe Problem Horse 
would be Twisted's answer to the Django Pony, but alas we will never get to 
meet it.
