In a TIME Magazine article written on December 17, 1979 by Richard Schnickel the horse that played Rising Star is Let's Merge.

Here is a link to the article: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,920725-1,00.html

The horse passed eighteen years later. Robert Redford took ownership of the horse after the movie and actually did all of his own riding stunts in the movie

Robert Redford played the staring role as a rodeo horseman. I guess it was his character you refer to. I never liked that movie so I'm not sure it it had another character that matches that description.

No, Robert Redford played Sonny Steele the cowboy, Rising Star was the horse and was played by the horse Let's Merge.
