So, you have yourself a badass, who now needs a badass way to get from point A to point B. Naturally, the Cool Car and the Cool Bike are there for him! The problem? We are in a High Fantasy story, mate, and we've got no stomach for that much Anachronism Stew. Enter the Cool Horse. An easy way to tell a Cool Horse is to check if it has a name. Especially, if it has a badass name. More especially, if it can run through the entire story without having to rest and eat. Most especially, if it looks badass — a Hellish Horse is cool by definition, as well as if it's involved in Horseback Heroism. Bonus points if, for whatever reason, the hero is the only person who can ride it. A race who are Born in the Saddle will have plenty of these, though the chief probably has the pick of the coolest ones. Many Cool Horses can be used in battle without any serious training — which is very much not true in Real Life. Indeed Give Me a Sword often asks for a horse. However, even a Cool Horse is sometimes not above a little Horsing Around for comic relief when he is feeling ornery. On alien planets, a Cool Horse will usually have a different color... and may also be a machine. Or even talk. See Power Up Mount for video game examples. Compare My Horse Is a Motorbike, when a modern-day vehicle (most commonly a motorcycle) is given Cool Horse traits. Contrast The Alleged Steed (though an Alleged Steed could become a Cool Horse if it Took a Level in Badass). Can go with Diligent Draft Animal when horses are used for manual labor.

The Heralds of Valdemar: The Shin'a'in battlesteeds: as smart as a really good working dog, incredibly loyal, able to survive on even the worst feed, and faster than anything on four legs — except a Companion. They're also incredibly ugly. Even the Shin'a'in freely admit they were bred for function over form to the point that looks were not even a consideration. While the aforementioned Companions look the part, they are guardian spirits in equine form and are annoyed or insulted to various degrees when referred to or treated as horses. |

The Mighty Thor: Marvel has Odin's horse, Sleipnir, which is a giant white horse with eight legs. There is also Beta Ray Bill No no, get your minds out of the gutter — Bill is simply an extremely equine looking alien.◊ Bill's semi-official nickname is "Thorse". In Thor and the Warriors Four, a de-aged Thor rides a similarly de-aged Bill. It is the most adorable thing ever. |

Dororo: One of the demons Hyakkimaru faces is a possessed female warhorse named Midoro who is forcibly separated from her foal by her cruel master to fight in one of his latest battles. When she is near death, she makes a bargain with an equine demon to use her body in exchange never to lose against any human. The ghostly horse is easily able to go hoof-to-toe with Hyakkimaru. The horse comes under the possession of Hyakkimaru's power-hungry rival, Saburota, who falls under the demon's spell. He uses it to raze nearby villages, and even hammers in spike-studded horseshoes so it could kill more people. | |

Breath of the Wild makes Epona amiibo-exclusive to emphasize the open nature of the game. Wild horses can be caught in about 80% of Hyrule, and among them are Zelda's Royal White Stallion note possessed of a five-star stamina stat for extended galloping, an aptly-named Giant Horse note boasting a five-star strength stat that can break Moblins, monstrous Stalhorses, the ethereal Lord of the Mountain, and the suspiciously Agro-like horse ridden by Link in cutscenes, the Rider amiibo, and the final battle if no horses have been tamed. If you have save data from the Switch version of Breath of the Wild on the console you use to play Tears of the Kingdom, your stabled horses will be carried over, allowing you to keep your Cool Horse of choice through both games. | |

The Belgariad features a species of insane carnivorous horses with claws instead of hooves. One of the characters is disappointed at being unable to ride one, until it's pointed out that carnivorous horses might not be a great idea for a culture built entirely around herding cows. The Sequel Series The Malloreon has Chretienne, who's given to Belgarion by 'Zakath after they become friends. Horse is also pretty much a Cool Horse, given that he's Touched by Vorlons and can apparently travel through Subspace or Hyperspace or something, and is the mount/BFF of Eriond, future God. In case you're wondering, Eriond named Horse himself; at the time, he had a simple but strange way of thinking. |

Instead of Ruin's red motif, Despair has a greenish-blue colour scheme. Rampage is Fury's horse in Darksiders III. He is a black horse with a white-blue mane and tail. Mayhem is Strife's horse. He is a White Stallion. |

In A Practical Guide to Evil there are an number of cool horses: the Fae ride murderous, carnivorous unicorns (the Winter Court) or white pegasi (the Summer Court). The Black Knight, Amadeus, and the Squire, Catherine, ride undead warhorses they reanimated themselves and which can be filled with explosives and blown up when the need arises. Catherine later upgrades to an undead pegasus which - despite beeing dead - retains a level of sentinence, viciousness, and loyality. | |

In Borderlands 2, Handsome Jack, resident insanely rich Big Bad, taunts you over the ECHO network that he has recently bought a horse made of diamonds, because he's rich. It's an actual, living horse made of diamond, which he names Butt Stallion, in honor of you. In Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep, Butt Stallion is the queen that you're trying to save.

In The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, town hero Brom Bones rides around on a magnificent stallion named Daredevil. The Headless Horseman rides an unnamed Hellish Horse, although since the Horseman is heavily implied to be a "Scooby-Doo" Hoax pulled off by Brom, it's likely the two horses are one and the same. In order to attend Van Tassel's party, Ichabod Crane is able to borrow a tired old plough horse named Gunpowder, who despite being initially very unimpressive, performs surprisingly well in the climactic chase with the Headless Horseman. | |

Raoh in Fist of the North Star has a massive black stallion named Kokuoh ("Black King"). Its presence in a nuclear wasteland pushes the Fridge Logic even further, but seeing a giant man ride up on a giant horse is just too awesome to not let slide.

The Enchanted Pony Academy trains young Glitter Ponies to serve as royal advisers and mounts. All Glitter Ponies can do ordinary magic like telekinesis or weather control, and on top of that they also have unique gifts like healing, turning invisible, and Super-Strength. When Princess Alana's father expresses relief that his daughter has found a suitable "pet", she corrects him: her beloved Electra is far, far too cool to be considered a mere pet. | |

Wonder Woman Vol. 1: Serge, the horse Diana keeps as Diana Prince, has a sixth sense about danger that helps Diana save a child from a villain without revealing her second identity as Wonder Woman. Serge never seems to get tired (though Diana can run much faster than a horse anyway) and is really good with children. Rainbow and Stardust are a stallion and mare that are cannily intelligent and roam Texas befouling the plans of rustlers. They've got a soft spot for the Candy family since they've never tried to capture the pair and like to give them apples, and have rescued Etta and the family horses on a couple of occasions. |

Fortunately for the world, Mare (as the heroes call her) is a gentle soul who wants none of that. When she awoke in a graveyard a bit earlier than scheduled, she walked off to steal carrots from a nearby farm, and the lich was killed in his attempt to get her back. Now she lives a very happy life on that farm, doing the work of two ordinary carthorses with ease. | |

The Survey Corps from Attack on Titan make use of specially-bred horses in their operations. Bonus Material gives more detail on these unique horses, each of which is worth more than the average citizen makes in a lifetime. Their top speed is 75 - 80 km/h (47 - 50 mph), and they are the only means to escape Titans when outside the Walls and in open areas. They are specifically bred to have exceptional stamina and strength, as well as Nerves of Steel so that they do not spook when encountering Titans or when riders activate their gear while in the saddle. | |

Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Lu Bu's personal steed, Red Hare, was said to be capable of running 1,000 li (roughly 500 km / 310 miles) in a single day, and crossing running water and mountains as easily as flat plains. It increased Lu Bu's already badass legend, and then Guan Yu's when he inherited it. Red Hare was such a Cool Horse that Lu Bu murdered his step-father to get it. A saying of the time was "Among men, Lu Bu. Among horses, Red Hare.", referencing that both were considered the be the most badass of man and horse of the day. | |

Said horse, Onyx, is able to do a Dynamic Entry through a thick glass wall, survives several explosions, predicts a bomb — and moves outside its blast radius — before her owner does and is able to operate an elevator on her own. According to Andy she also plays a mean game of chess. Spike is, to say it the least, sceptical. | |

Oblivion introduces Shadowmere, a ludicrously fast immortal black mare with red eyes, who, if you let her, will thoroughly kick the shit out of any enemy in-game.

Shadowmere then returns in Skyrim, as something...more...than a normal horse. | |

Faran, the roan from from The Elenium and The Tamuli also by David Eddings, is the incredibly intelligent and capable war horse of Sparhawk the Pandion Knight. Their relationship is less than one of perfect compliance and involves the kind of trickery and coercion one might actually see in a strong-willed horse, and Sparhawk approaches him more as a partner than anything, always treating Faran with respect. One of his tendencies is to bite strangers, such that Sparhawk frequently has to warn handlers. Faran acts like he has a bad temper exclusively because Sparhawk actually likes him to act that way because it's expected of a war horse; the two are fearsome in tandem.note When ridden by Child-Goddess Aphrael in a quiet moment, he shows his Bruiser with a Soft Center side. | |

Paladins in World of Warcraft can learn to summon a cool horse at level 30. The Alliance Paladins (Humans, Dwarves, Draenei) get one with gold and blue barding, while the Blood Elf (Horde) paladins get one in bronze and red. At level 60, Alliance paladins go through an epic quest chain to get an Even Cooler Horse, which has horns and glows gold. Blood Elves go through a different quest (which involves desecration of a church and the massacre of its guards, no less) to get one that glows red and looks like it feeds off kitten blood. Warlocks learn to summon a flaming steed at level 30. At level 60 they have an epic quest to learn to summon an epic, flaming, scaled, horned steed. Death Knights will get a spectral horse with flaming blue hooves. Plus there are cool horse drops from bosses — Deathcharger (a skeletal horse with purple barding) and Midnight (which has flaming green hooves and buckteeth... okay, not so cool). The Headless Horseman's horse, a spectral mount with flaming green hooves, who can run on air. You can buy (with real money) a Cool Winged Horse from Blizzard online store. More than merely Cool, it's a living constellation, translucent so you can see the stars glowing within. The Forsaken have Cool Horses as their default racial mount: they're skeletal, ghoulish steeds decked out in tattered gear and sporting the Glowing Eyelights of Undeath. The level 40 variations include tarnished armor and twisting horns. There are also several in-story Cool Horses. Most notably, Invincible the steed of Arthas Menethil aka the Lich King. Invincible died while saving Arthas' life from... well nobody really knows exactly what as poor little ten year old Arthas was unable to say (but an Old God would be a good bet). Years later, Arthas raised him in undeath. You can obtain Invincible's Reins (which allows you to summon Invincible) after defeating the Lich King, but the drop rate is one of the lowest in the game. |

A Cool Horse was de rigueur for the B-Western hero. Silver is the most famous, but equally famous in their day were Gene Autry's steed Champion, Tom Mix's Tony "the Wonder Horse" and, of course, Roy Rogers' companion Trigger. To give an idea of how important these noble equines were, posters for several of Rogers' movies gave Trigger more prominent billing than Dale Evans, even after she and Rogers were married. That Other Wiki has a full article here. Before Trigger's multiple appearances for Roy Rogers both in Film and TV, he was reported to be Maid Marian's steed in Errol Flynn's 1938 The Adventures of Robin Hood. |

Now he is an immortal time-traveller, appearing whenever a new hero is needed. He therefore has the appearance to match: as the most beautiful of all horses, his dappled coat has a pearlescent glow, like ice on fire, and his tail streams like the silver froth of a waterfall. | |

Two centuries earlier, in the Beka Cooper books, Lady Sabine's warhorses Drummer and Steady. Try to hurt their lady, get kicked in the head repeatedly. Try to stop them from getting to their lady when they've figured out that she's in danger, watch the whole stable staff get killed. They're also trained to detect common poisons by smell and will refuse any meal that's suspect. So it's not that surprising when Pounce confirms Lady Sabine's family has magic similar to Daine's that specifically works with horses. | |

Black Beauty. This horse is not only the main character of one of the best-selling books of all time, but is the protagonist of the first story that was ever told in first person narrative from the point of view from an animal, kick-starting an entire sub-genre of animal stories. His story led to more responsible use of the bearing rein (which was then often used to hold a horse's head in an unnaturally high and uncomfortable position) and is also believed to have made a difference in reducing the taxicab license fee of the time, something that was often exploited by those that hired out cabbies to drivers. He also has an in-book moment of awesome when he refuses to cross a bridge that he instinctively knows is dangerous, saving himself and his two passengers by doing so. | |

Stormseeker, the grey stallion in Sword Daughter, clearly owes some inspiration to Tolkien's Shadowfax and is described as a "prince of horses." He's as intelligent as a human, helps the protagonists by request rather than by command, and has supernatural powers, including the ability to cover much more distance than the length of his strides should account for and to help anyone running alongside him do the same. | |

Hurog: Dragon Bones and its sequel feature a few cool horses, the coolest being Stygian, a battle steed ridden by the main character who is vicious (the horse, not the main character), bad tempered and killed the main character's father. The most awesome part is that the main character immediately renames his badass, evil, ugly horse that everyone wants to put down as Pansy. Other characters are not amused. | |

Khartoum, Jack Woltz's magnificent stallion from The Godfather, who was infamously killed because Woltz wouldn't give Johnny Fontane, the godson of mob boss Don Vito Corleone, the starring role in a new movie.note Of course, given that Woltz was also molesting a child actress (in the book, at least; this detail was cut from the film), it was also a case of Even Evil Has Standards and Shame If Something Happened (since there were other ways the Corleones could have put pressure on the studio that were less brutal). | |

The Iron Kingdoms have some of their own — namely the Karpathan destriers bred in the harsh north of Khador, quite possibly the biggest, strongest and meanest breed of horse in Western Immoren. These things can ride into battle with full heavy barding while carrying a large man wearing a suit of extremely-heavy, steam-driven Man-O-War armour. | |

The Stormlight Archive: Ryshadium are bigger, stronger, faster, and smarter then normal horses, and they are also pseudo-Bond Creatures, they choose their own riders and are apparently picky about it: there are only a dozen men in all the Alethi warcamps that have one. Ryshadium are so grand that Dalinar compare upgrading to one of these horses as being similar to a knight going from plate to magical Powered Armor. The in universe explaination for their size and intelligence is that each one has it's own bond with Spren, strangely Music Spren to be specific. An in-universe researcher even speculates that Ryshadium are sapient. | |

Dungeons & Dragons, as usual. Paladins have a special ability to summon a "special mount." This grew until they can get an epic mount from the outer planes that is attuned only to them. It doesn't have to be a horse per se, but it usually is. Until Third Edition, a Paladin could only summon the thing once every ten years. Considering Paladins need every stat but Intelligence, there is a very good chance that the paladin's mount is smarter than they are. Of course, with Paladins often being cast as Lawful Stupid, that shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. Nightmares in Dungeons & Dragons are a fiery option for the Evil Counterpart of paladins, the Blackguard. Unicorns and Celestial Chargers (Half-Celestial Unicorns) are also out there. There's also the pegasi, the hippocampus, griffons, hippogriffs, riding dogs, dinosaurs, worgs, dragons... Asperi and comet steed. There's no shortage of creatures to ride around on. Eberron has magebred horses, and the Valenar have horses descended from ancient druids. |

Agro from Shadow of the Colossus. She shrugs off so much abuse, she must be the 17th Colossus. Given the sheer size of that thing, it may be true. Agro is larger than some draft horses. Toward the end of the game, Agro falls into a huge crevasse, a fall that would most definitely kill the player. After the final battle, it is revealed that she is still alive, and she has managed to limp her way over a mile back to the temple. |

Epona, Link's steed in multiple The Legend of Zelda games beginning with Ocarina of Time, is much beloved by fans. She's so cool that, in Twilight Princess, if you speak to her as a wolf, her dialogue is words of encouragement. She's not in this because she's simply been trained to do what you say - she's in this because she wants you to succeed in your quest. Not only this, but during the final battle, she manages to keep pace with Ganondorf's Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane red-eyed Gerudo stallion while carrying twice as many riders. As pictured above, Phantom Ganon in Ocarina of Time rides his own version of Ganondorf's Hellish Horse during his boss fight. Breath of the Wild makes Epona amiibo-exclusive to emphasize the open nature of the game. Wild horses can be caught in about 80% of Hyrule, and among them are Zelda's Royal White Stallion note possessed of a five-star stamina stat for extended galloping, an aptly-named Giant Horse note boasting a five-star strength stat that can break Moblins, monstrous Stalhorses, the ethereal Lord of the Mountain, and the suspiciously Agro-like horse ridden by Link in cutscenes, the Rider amiibo, and the final battle if no horses have been tamed. If you have save data from the Switch version of Breath of the Wild on the console you use to play Tears of the Kingdom, your stabled horses will be carried over, allowing you to keep your Cool Horse of choice through both games. |

Cerulean, Shal's inherited horse familiar in the Forgotten Realms novel Pool of Radiance, is intelligent, telepathic, and something of a Deadpan Snarker. He also somewhat obviously puts the lie to the notion that familiars should by all rights be small creatures that their masters carry around with them rather than vice versa, although she can still put him into her (suitably enchanted) pocket if need be. | |

Peachblossom, Kel's battered warhorse in the Protector of the Small quartet, practically defines this trope. If you try to pet and/or mount him and your name isn't Kel, Tobe, Stefan, or Daine, he will either bite your arm off or try really hard to. Two centuries earlier, in the Beka Cooper books, Lady Sabine's warhorses Drummer and Steady. Try to hurt their lady, get kicked in the head repeatedly. Try to stop them from getting to their lady when they've figured out that she's in danger, watch the whole stable staff get killed. They're also trained to detect common poisons by smell and will refuse any meal that's suspect. So it's not that surprising when Pounce confirms Lady Sabine's family has magic similar to Daine's that specifically works with horses. |

Paladins puts its champions on horseback whenever they start the match and respawn so they can get to the battle faster. The horses come in many different varieties, such as the standard brown, the black-coated Onyx Stallion, the Infenal Warhorse, the Candy Unicorn, the red-armored Scarlet Charger, and the icy Frostmare. | |

Centaurworld: The simply-named Horse, a grey warhorse fierce enough to crush the skulls of her enemies, brave enough to jump stakes, and loyal enough to die for her rider. Over the course of her quest, she also develops a super-tough cartoony physique that, while it makes her look like "two beach balls had a weird kid", also makes her immune to falls and grants her magic that lets her dive into people's memories. Becky Apples can be best described as a psychopath on hooves, fully willing and able to storm a castle of minotaurs all by herself. She has her own (large) killcount scratched on her bridle, defied her rider's control to jump a chasm that said rider thought was impassible, and bucks the Big Bad's human half down a fatal drop in the finale, clearing the way for someone else to deliver his deathblow. If not for her complete disregard for humans, she would be a perfect horse; as it is, the army only gets her to cooperate by bribing her with apples. To top all this off: in a setting where a horse's choice of rider says a lot about who they are, the only rider Becky has ever stuck with is a literal princess. |

Blackjack from Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Also Rainbow the Hippocamp (ie: literal sea horse). Mrs O'Leary is a giant hell-hound but she can be ridden through shadows (don't try it if you're afraid of the dark). From The Heroes of Olympus, we have Tempest (a storm spirit who happens to look and act like a horse) and Arion, immortal son of Poseidon and Demeter conceived while they were both in the form of horses, capable of breaking the sound barrier across land and and sea. The fact that the latter is Percy's half-brother is a bit of a shock to say the least. | |

Aki's borrowed horse in Silver Spoon is "only" a mortal horse, but wow, can it make a cool entrance. The hero initially mistakes it for a bear. It comes with a reference to the aforementioned Cool Horse in Fist of the North Star. The protagonist is entering Equestrian Club, so of course it features varied horse, most of them qualify for this trope, from large and super-strong Ban'ei horse to agile Hokkaido's small horse to an ugly, temperamental and snarky horse who actually very good in hands of competent rider. |

In the Undead Nightmare expansion pack, Not only are there four "Horses of the Apocalypse" running around, trailing things like locusts and fire, but if you break 'em all in, you get a chance at the ultimate mount: a unicorn. A unicorn that emits a cloud of butterflies when it's grazing and leaves a rainbow behind it as it runs. | |

Rainbow Brite had Starlite, who was "the most magnificent horse in the universe" — at least, according to him. Well, he could talk and fly (okay, technically he walked on rainbows) and had rainbow colored hair. Then there's Skydancer, Stormy's horse. Though he couldn't talk, he could fly unaided, and when he ran he trailed rain and lightning shot from his hooves. There’s also Krys' horse ON-X. Unlike the other two, he was a robotic black steed who could speak. |

In the animated version that ran in the '60s, Silver once pulled the Lone Ranger out of quicksand — reaching his head back to grasp in his teeth the coiled lasso hanging from the saddle (is that even anatomically possible?), he flung the loop end into the Ranger's hands (the other end was already tied to the saddle). It'd take Lassie or Rin-Tin-Tin to top that! | |

The Elder Scrolls In Daggerfall, the Iliac Bay god of war, Ebonarm, is said to ride into battle upon his "golden stallion", War Master. Ebonarm himself is a Black Knight, never seen without his dark ebony armor, and has an ebony sword permanently fused to his right arm. Oblivion introduces Shadowmere, a ludicrously fast immortal black mare with red eyes, who, if you let her, will thoroughly kick the shit out of any enemy in-game. You could also knock her out and store an infinite amount of items in her, effectively making weight limits on what you can carry pointless. Shadowmere then returns in Skyrim, as something...more...than a normal horse. Skyrim adds Arvak in its Dawnguard DLC. Arvak is a skeletal horse glowing with purple flames, and is a summoned creature, making him functionally immortal. In the series' backstory, the Redguards of Hammerfell have a cool horse breed known as the Yokudan Charger. It came over with their ancestors during the migration from Yokuda, is well adapted to Hammerfell's desert climate, and is said to make for one of the best war steeds in Tamriel. |

A Song of Ice and Fire Stranger, Sandor Clegane's warhorse. Huge, black, powerful, and viciously savage, he's gentle as a lamb with Sandor but will lash out at anyone else who gets near him. Notable victims include two hapless priests, one lately left with a broken leg and the other short an ear. He's named after the much-feared god of death and outcasts, which has particular relevance to the misanthropic Sandor. Dany's silver is a beautiful mount of exceptional quality, bred by a warlike equestrian culture who never name their mounts. |

There are several equine Pokémon, and almost every region has at least one species or evolution line. Introduced in Pokémon Red and Blue, Ponyta and Rapidash are horses with flaming manes and tails, native to Kanto and Sinnoh. Unova has Blitzle and Zebstrika; electric zebras, but they still fit the trope. There's also the Swords of Justice, four equine Fighting-type Pokémon with a musketeer theme; Cobalion is part Steel-type, Terrakion is part Rock-type, Virizion is part Grass-type, and Keldeo is part Water-type. Alola has Mudbray and Mudsdale, an earthen donkey that evolves into a much nobler steed. Galar has its own regional variant of Ponyta and Rapidash which trade their fiery manes and tails for glowing hair in pastel tones, and their pure Fire-type for the coveted Fairy/Psychic combination. The Crown Tundra DLC adds Spectrier and Glastrier, two very strong horse Pokémon that can be ridden by the main legendary Pokémon in the expansion, Calyrex, changing it into one of two obscenely strong alternate forms. |

Final Fantasy has its share: Recurring summon Odin always has a horse in some way. In Final Fantasy III, he was mounted on a normal-looking horse. Final Fantasy IV upgraded it to a six-legged beast, occasionally named Sleipnir, which has persisted through most appearances in the series. Final Fantasy XIII has him turn into a horse to go with the game's transformation gimmick. Boko from Final Fantasy V who carries three people at once while jumping over pits during an earthquake. Ixion from Final Fantasy X is a damn awesome unicorn, once you get past that horrific, scythe-like horn that takes up half his face ...and the exposed ribs/musculature ..and the lightning powers that mean running away would be futile since he'll just electrocute you to save time. |

Kelpies from Loyal Enemies are extremely durable, fast and capable of lifting heavy weights. The best thing about them, though, is that they walk on snow, sinking in only slightly no matter how much weight is put on them, which is absolutely useful as the action of the book takes place in winter and involves copious amounts of traveling. Their secret is that they aren't actually horses, but river currents that take the form of horses on land and remain such as long as they are kept bridled. | |

Super Sentai/Power Rangers: In Seijuu Sentai Gingaman: Each Ranger had their own horse, except the Sixth Ranger who had a giant biomechanical bull. The horses showed up in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy but only for one episode. Power Rangers Mystic Force has the most badass. An untameable horse that had a habit of running rampant through town breaking stuff was snatched to the Underworld to serve Koragg, and now turns into a zord that he can summon and combine with when he goes giant. The Power Rangers Samurai can use Symbol Power to summon up horses to ride on. |

Earth's Children: Whinney is Ayla's cool horse. After killing her dam, Ayla takes pity on the now orphaned foal, saving her from hyenas and coaxing her into her cave. Ayla raises Whinney to adulthood and she trusts Ayla enough to let her ride on her back, which is unheard of in the setting (Ice Age Europe). She also helps Ayla hunt from horseback and transports heavy goods for her, making her journey across Europe easier than if she'd been solely on foot. Whinney's colt Racer is ridden by Jondalar and is considered an impressive horse; he's a rare bay colour and can gallop very fast (hence why Jondalar named him Racer). A lot of people are awed that Jondalar can not just ride a horse, but have any degree of control over a powerful stallion. |

Imperial Guard roughriders in Warhammer 40,000 ride into battle with lances tipped with high explosives, against all kinds of aliens, demons, giant robots, and so on. While the horses themselves don't get much love, they must be pretty cool to deal with that. Mogul Kamir has an Automaton Horse given to him by the Mechanicus as thanks. |

Hope for the Heartless has Mitternacht, the main heroine Avalina's faithful black Friesian. Originally a knight's steed, he became furious with grief due to his rider's death until Avalina tamed him, making him loyal to her only. He follows her to her imprisonment in the castle of the Horned King, becomes the first horse to remain sane after spending months close to the lich and can project Death Glares that keep even the lich at bay. He even drives away Arawn — the freaking Death Lord of Annuvin — from messing with Avalina's dreams! | |

Archaon the Everchosen from Warhammer had Dorghar, Steed of the Apocalypse. A daemon that can take the form of any steed its rider desires, Archaon forced it to be a facsimile of Oberon-his original horse who had recently been killed-only with a mouthful of jagged fangs. In addition to having the highest Movement score possible, it's physically powerful enough to kick an Ogre to death and during the End Times ripped out Deathclaw-a griffon the size of an elephant and veteran of many battles-'s throat. Prince Tyrion rides Malhandir, the Father of Horses. It has a move of 10" which means it can March 20''... The same range as an arrow from a bow. He's also over three hundred years old, with no explanation given for his longevity. Daemonic steeds are an option for some Chaos units. Bretonnian units naturally get lots of cavalry, some of which are mounted on pegasi. Elven steeds in general, especially those from the Princedom of Ellyria (Of whom the aforementioned Malhandir is considered to be the greatest their herds have produced in millennia), are considered to be the best in the world, with it being implied that Bretonnian horses owe their exceptional qualities to being descended from Elven horses stolen from Athel Loren. Phoenix King Caledor II rode a huge white stallion named Torment into the final battle of the War of Vengeance, with it stated that he was one of the last members of the royal equestrian bloodline of Tiranoc and the only horse that the King considered worthy of him. Torment was sent away by Caledor before his final duel with High King Gotrek Starbreaker and unlike his master survived the battle. |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Played with in the episode "A Dog and Pony Show". The fact that Equestria is populated mostly by ponies usually keeps the characters from being considered this trope in-universe, but this doesn't stop Spike from trying to ride Twilight into battle to save Rarity (complete with a "Hi-ho, Twilight! Away!"). Twilight is not amused. Of course, this does not prevent her from indulging him anyway. Spike also once tried this with the horses pulling the carriage taking the gang to the Grand Galloping Gala. Caramel and Lucky Clover weren't very amused. Spike indulges in this once again, more successfully, in "Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep?" In the shared dream, after turning into a Dragon Knight, he picks a giant-sized Derpy Hooves as his flying mount, who enthusiastically play along. |

Tex Willer: Dynamite, the first and most famous of Tex' steeds, who showed amazing speed, formidable strength and stamina, and, most importantly, far greater smarts one would expect from a horse. After a while Dynamite was replaced with Disposable Mounts, but a 2019 story explained what had happened: as the horse was growing old, Tex procured him a herd and left him to wander free in the Navajo Reservation, though when said herd was stolen he had one last adventure with Tex to rescue them, even saving his life thanks to his smarts (and dying in the process). If Tex is coming from the reservation, chance is his horse is one of Dynamite's descendants, who are also stronger, faster and more resistant to fatigue than most horses. Son of the Wind, a wild mustang living in the Arapaho reservation, so exceptional in everything that the Arapaho convinced themselves he was the personification of their remaining freedom, and would start an Indian war to keep him free. "The Great Race" features a horse race from Tucson to Los Angeles, so any of the horses that passed the selections qualify, but two stand above the others: West Wind, an Appaloosa whose physical abilities are so exceptional that Tex doubted Dynamite could have beaten him in a race, and the unnamed steed of count Sergey Guriev, that West Wind could barely defeat in the race. |

In League of Legends: Rell, the Iron Maiden, rides a "horse" that's actually just a set of bulky chunks of armor that she animates to serve as a mount. Her gameplay shifts between disassembling it into a metal suit for herself and reassembling it into a ride for mobility. Senna, the Redeemer, usually carries a large magical railgun, and in her alternate-canon High Noon skin, it was redesigned to be the alternate form of a half-demonic, half-angelic steed named Sentinel. |

Strawberry Shortcake: Honey Pie Pony and the other Strawberryland fillies from the 2003 version. Apart from Honey Pie Pony, some appeared in the series, while others did not. There was also "Maple Stirrup" in the 1980s version. Which got a passing mention in a game the 2003 series version (to be specific, mentioned in one of the story books in the GBA game Ice Cream Island Riding Camp). |

Played with in the episode "A Dog and Pony Show". The fact that Equestria is populated mostly by ponies usually keeps the characters from being considered this trope in-universe, but this doesn't stop Spike from trying to ride Twilight into battle to save Rarity (complete with a "Hi-ho, Twilight! Away!"). Twilight is not amused. Of course, this does not prevent her from indulging him anyway. | |

The War Gods: The Soth�ii coursers are the result of magical genetic engineering. As such they are bigger, stronger, faster and tougher than normal horses, as intelligent as humans, have the ability to magically bond with humans, and are able to talk telepathically to each other as well as their human companions and some mages. "Normal" Soth�ii horses also qualify, since while they are not as cool as the coursers, they are descended from the less successful results of the same experiments that produced the coursers. As such they are quite a bit faster and with more endurance than a normal horse, and are more intelligent that normal horses although not to the same levels as the coursers. |

Mobile Fighter G Gundam's Master Asia has a horse, Fuunsaiki, which pilots a mobile suit shaped like a giant mechanical horse. A Running Gag in the series' yonkoma parody strips is the idea that Domon Kasshu is only Master Asia's second apprentice in the martial arts. Fuunsaiki is the first, and outranks Domon. | |

Merlin (1998): The titular wizard uses a horse called Sir Rupert as his mount for most of the series. There's clearly something mystical about Sir Rupert, as he can talk and is still alive by the Distant Epilogue, although no explanation is offered outside of the novelisation. | |

Artax from The Neverending Story. Although his death traumatized many a wee kidlet, he remains a beloved equine, especially his resurrection/reappearance at the end of the film racing across the plains with Atreyu on his back. In the original novel, he spoke. Unfortunately, he didn't get resurrected in the book.) | |

Cesare - Il Creatore che ha distrutto has protagonist 16-year-old Cesare Borgia with his fierce black stallion Romulus. Historically, he loved horses and was very skilled with them. His first appearance in the manga is his Meet Cute with The Watson Angelo — despite his lack of horse experience, Angelo was made to ride Remus, the brother of Cesare's horse, and lost control. Over the series, his growing skill with the horse shows his character development, and relationship with Cesare. Artist Fuyumi Soryo was known for her horse illustrations before she started this manga. | |

The Nokk from Frozen II, which is a water spirit in the form of a stallion, attacked Elsa when she tried to cross the ocean, but after a struggle she conjured reins out of ice and climbed on its back. After some extensive rodeo-style antics, it gave up on throwing her and resigned itself to being her obedient steed. | |

In Fire and Hemlock, the main character's sidekick acquires one of those via a very strange coincidence. He exchanges it for a car later, though, as a horse is a bit impractical in modern times. (The car is just as bad-tempered, though.) | |
