A mare comes into season approximately once a month. This is the time when she is willing to breed and able to become pregnant. A Stud or Stallion will always be more than happy to breed her during this time. So yes ... horses can be made to mate.

No. Breeding is controlled by visual and biochemical stimulation of the stallion by the mare when she is in standing heat/estrus.

This is not to say that a stallion or mare can't prefer one mate over another and there is annecdotal information of at least one stallion who collects a particular color of mare for his broodmare band in the wild.

Mares can refuse to be bred by a stallion as a stallion can refuse to breed a mare.

This may be due to a previous unpleasant interaction between the two.

Yes, horses do fight to mate, if another stallion comes to their herd. The stronger and bigger one will probably win the fight.
