"right from the Horse's mouth"--- going to the original source.

etimological derivation:

In horse racing, going to the stables before the race. You are really not talking to the horses, you are talking to the jockeys. But talking to the jockeys might in some circles be considered illegal, hence the euphemism "talking to the horses" or from the horse's mouth.

this is perhaps more than you wanted to know. :)
