Why is it important that the horse has a large heart?
Consider the structure of the horse - four limbs, an extended spine to produce a tail, a neck that raises and lowers. Not only must the blood reach down the legs, it must also be forced, by the mass flow of blood, back up the legs, as well as up and down the neck to the brain, and all the way along the spine to the dock. To provide blood to all these places at rest and at exercise, the heart must be very strong and be large enough to pump a sufficient volume of blood.

Do vampires bite the neck?
No, if someone was to be bit by a vampire on the neck they would die istantaniously, no vampire ever bites the neck. It is just a myth, the neck has so many main blood flow areas, they know they shouldn't bite there.
Why are the neck pulses visible?
The arteries in the neck are very large (to supply blood to the brain), and fairly close to the surface because of all the other stuff in the neck (muscles, spine, trachea, esophagus). So the ebb and flow of blood as your heart pumps can be visible on the surface of the skin.
