I heard they eat pretty much the same amount. But if you have a horse like my Silky, your horse would probably eat more than a cow. And then again my neighbors' horses hardly eat the grass in their pasture, they like to bask in the sun and play more than eat grass. In my option it depends on your horse or cow.

Has there ever been a half cow half horse?
There have been claims of a half cow-half horse existing, but they occurred more than a hundred years ago. Many believe that the half horse and half cow is a fabled animal that has never existed, and that a horse and a cow cannot mate and produce an offspring because they are of two different species. However, it may have happened that less evolved forms of both species did in fact mate and their half cow-half horse offspring has simply gone extinct.
ASK anatomy of cattle and horses are they the same?
No, Please click at the related links (Skeleton Cow - Skeleton Horse) first. As you can see the skeleton of a horse is pushed "up". The neck of a horse is build to have its head moving around, while the neck of a cow is build just 2 support. The horse also has more ribs 2 protect its body. While the cow has horns to protect itself. The horse carries more on its backlegs and the cow more on its frontlegs. You can see that by looking at the beginning of the talebone and the hips. Also the cow has a longer talebone. So the cow can move its tale better. The horse doesn't need 2 as the horse has long hairs that sweep all around him/her. The horse is build for speed to protect him/her. While the cow protects itself with a heavy armour. That's why the horse is build smaller and higher. And the cow low to the ground.
