It is said that horses are the sport of Kings. Many people would tell you that this is true because only Kings can afford them! But horses come in all price ranges and horse care can be extremely extravagant to very basic. The various activities that can be done with horses are also variable in their costs. A horse that cost a lot of money is not necessarily any better than the horse that is free. As long as the horse receives good basic care, the cost does not matter. And having a horse as a back yard pet can be just enjoyable as competing with a horse at the Olympic Games.
There was a time when horses were mostly used for work and people viewed them more as a necessary piece of equipment than an animal for fun, sport, and fulfilling relationships. So in the past it was only the Kings who had the time and money to do anything with their horses besides work and now if they were only used for work, they might very well be extinct!
Horses are regal animals that generously share themselves and allow people to experience the fantasy of control of something bigger than themselves - like a King!
