Horses originally evolved to flourish on the wide-open plains, meadows and savannahs of Central Asia, Africa and Europe - they need a lot of room to run and to graze. When domesticated, fields are the closest approximation to their natural environment, so you often find horses being "turned out" into pastures and fields when they are not in work.
