Since this is a question posed on the computer game Howrse, the answer would be "all of these."
In real life, though, a bored horse in a stall is a recipe for stall vices. Pacing, stomping, weaving, pawing, cribbing, wind sucking, teeth grinding, box walking, wall-kicking, self-mutilation, head-bobbing, are all nasty little habits that once started can be very difficult to stop. They can effect the health of the horse and can cause damage to the stall. A horse can also become aggressive, charging at a stall wall just to see if it can go through it, or biting out at other horses and its handlers.

Would a horse paw in his stall if left alone?
Depending on the temperment of the individual horse, being in a stall could result in what is called "stall vices". Stall vices are common when a horse gets bored or restless and does not get enough exercise outside. The vices manifest as cribbing (wood chewing-air sucking (sucking in air as he cribs)-pawing-pacing-weaving (rocking back and forth on front feet)-kicking the wall-tooth grinding. Once a horse starts one or more of the above behaviors it can be difficult to get them to stop. The best thing is to make sure the horse gets plenty of outdoor exercise, time with his horsey friends, take him out of his stall everyday for grooming, (this is a great way to bond with your horse and he will love you for it) and there are toys made just for horses (example-stall balls) that may help relieve his boredom. An extra warning: horses can learn these behaviors from other horses. A vice may start with one bored horse and before you know it the whole barn will be grinding their teeth or kicking the walls.
