You do not have to groom your horse at all. If left outside on their own, they will be just fine. Grooming is just for when you are going to ride, to make sure nothing is rubbing up on the horse as you ride, and many people use grooming time as a time to look for cuts, scrapes, bruises or other injuries.

The amount of exercise a horse requires depends mainly on how it's kept and what it's job is. If the horse is kept outside and is just used for light riding, such as a few lessons or trail rides a week, then 30 minutes to an hour a day or every other day is fine. If the horse is more confined or in more intensive work then 45 minutes to an hour or so daily would be a good amount to go by.

A stabled horse should be given at least a daily brushing and hoof cleaning, this allows the owner or groom to check the horse for any signs of illness or injury and helps to keep the horse clean and healthy.
