your horse is doing a motion called cribbing. it is a act caused mostly by boredom, and is not influenced by other horses. If you have your horse in a area of the barn not by a lot of noise consider moving him. some horses like a lot of busyness. another thing you can do is put a cribbing collar on him. most tack stores will carry them. they are placed around the throat of your horses neck and pulled as tight as possible. It may seem harsh but when a horse cribs it must flex the muscles in its neck. by putting a collar on it prevents them from tightening the neck. and to reassure you that it is something you really would want to consider doing, when horses crib they may also suck in their throats, pieces of wood. that may cause colic, and cribbing is basically a horses' high.
