Notes:
The phrase quoted comes from Homer, Iliad 5.772 (web address 1). However, despite the scholia there (and other lexica), the actual sense and import of the headword adjective u(yhxh/s is unclear: see LSJ s.v.
For the glossing word u(yau/xhn applied to a horse, cf. Plato, Phaedrus 253D.
cf. under upsilon 744.
