The horse uses its store of chemical energy from the carbon food it eats (grass), which is combined with oxygen breathed in from the atmosphere in the muscles to produce carbon dioxide, CO2, which is breathed out. This process releases chemical energy into the muscles which produce mechanical energy to carry the horse forward.
