Horses will nap between late morning and midafternoon, usually standing. Youngsters will lay down often throughout the day. Most horses will lay down at night. However, if pastured in a group, there will almost always be one animal standing 'guard' over it's sleeping mates.

How long should a horse lay on its side?
Not always. However, they generally sleep standing up, as they can lock their legs to stop them falling over. In the wild this is so that predators are less likely to attack, as the horse looks bigger whilst it is standing rather than laying close to the ground. Though in a lot of cases horses do tend to lay down if they are sick. If a horse has Colic, for example, will cause them to get very bad stomach pains, which makes them want to lay down and roll.
