Yes they can. Horses can be ridden until any age aslong as they are fit and healthy and in good condition, although some horses start to lack stamina and energy as they get older. Horses and ponies over 20 would need lighter work than say a 10 year old.
I was about 8 when I started riding horses and am still hooked.
No, a twelve-year-old horse is not too old. Horses can live well into their 20s and even 30s with proper care and management. A twelve-year-old horse is typically still considered to be in its prime years for performance and riding.
some people say 20 - 25, i know horses that are 25 - 30 and are still going well with riders on their backs. so normally from 20 - 30 years old. there are the odd horses that live past forty though
most animals become mature between 1 year and 3 years of life. horses can live 20 - 30 years cows can live 4 - 12 years on average
Horses Usually Live To Be 20-30 years Old And Older In Some Cases If Properly Taken Care Of. The Oldest Horse I Beleive Was 2000 ears Old When It Passed Away.
horses can live roughly til about 43 years of age as i have an old chestnut mare called peggy who is 43 years old and still is running around the field today.
Up to 22 years old
thorough bred horses that are about 2 years old do racing
No way, most barrel racing horses will start to be as fast as they are going to get. At 20 they are starting to go over the hill and most horses will live to be 30 at the most some more than 30 though.
25 to 33 years
up to 100 years
It's for 3 years old horses
