I think it is a funny idea, but I don't want to offend the masses of horse people at the show.
That's why I'd suggest a fedora, if he'll tolerate it. Without making him look a bit more like a gangster, I'm not sure if people will know what he is.

You could always put a curly wig on him, dress as a gangster yourself and tell everyone your moll has a bit of a horse face.

Speaking of horses in costume- one of the ponies at Claremont was rented to play a unicorn at the Met one year (he, rest his soul, was a very handsome fat little pure white pony). He got the hang of the horn they put on him, and when he got bored waiting backstage would "innocently" turn his head and WHAP people across the face with it.
