Praṣṭi, like Pṛṣṭyā, denotes a ‘side horse,’ which, however, possibly[१] did not necessarily mean a horse running beside the yoke-horses, but may also have meant a third horse yoked in front as a leader. This seems to be indicated by the reference in the Rigveda[२] to the Praṣṭi--here applied to the Maruts’ team--leading (vahati) the team (rohitaḥ). In an obscure passage of the Atharvaveda[३] there is a reference to the Praṣṭis in connexion with a pañca-vāhī, ‘drawn by five,’ but it is impossible to gain any clear idea of what is meant. The Praṣṭi is not rarely referred to elsewhere.[४] In one passage[५] the dhuryau and the praṣṭyau are mentioned together; this probably means the two horses yoked to the pole, with two others fastened in some way one on each side. The adjectives praṣṭimant,[६] praṣṭi-vāhana,[७] praṣṭi-vāhin,[८] are all used of Ratha, ‘chariot,’ meaning ‘drawn by a side horse (or horses)’ in addition to the yoke-horses. Cf. Ratha.
Praṣṭi is considered by Bloomfield[९] to refer to a horse yoked in front to guide the team, a sense clearly occurring in some places, and to be derived from pra and as, ‘be,’ as in Upasti. The word is usually[१०] considered to be connected with parśu, ‘rib.’

viii. 27, 8. In i. 100, 17, praṣṭibhiḥ seems to refer to the assistants or comrades of Ṛjrāśva (cf. Lāṭyāyana Śrauta Sūtra, iii. 12, 14);
but Ludwig thinks that the word refers to the steeds by which a victory was won. - ↑ x. 8, 8. Cf. Whitney, Translation of the Atharvaveda, 597.
