They must adapt to new feed and new areas. If they are domestic they need to get used to new people and their style of riding. Depending on the rider they must be sensitive or quiet when asked. In the wild,they must adapt to watch for predetors and to eat quickly. Also,they don't always get water when they need. All horses need to get used to a new smell or feeling such as saddle blanket or dog. They all have to adapt to new horses as well.
Horses have a great many adaptations.
Horses occupy a niche. They specialise in poor quality grass that many animals won't eat. This reduces competition. Because the grass is so poor horses have grown very large. This is because the larger the animal the less energy it needs to extract from its food (think of a hummingbird or shrew, constantly eating), so the large horse can make do on the poor quality grass. The horse also needed to develop a way to digest the tough grass. It uses caecal digestion; bacteria break down the food. The horse also needs to eat almost constantly and doesn't digest its food as thoroughly as a cow or sheep, in order to get enough nutrients from its diet. The horse has sensitive lips to help select the best grasses.
The horses larger size also means that it is faster, which is important as a prey animal. The horse used to have several toes, but now has just one, known as a hoof. This increases the horse's top speed. The horse developed a longer jaw so it could see over the tops of grass stems while eating. The horses eyes are also placed on the sides of its head, giving it good all round vision to watch for predators. Horses also live in groups (a stallion and several mares, his harem). This means while some horses are relaxing others can keep guard. Horses have far better hearing and smell than us to help watch for danger.
Adaptations.
Not necessarily. While adaptations can help an organism survive and reproduce in its environment, they may not always be beneficial in all situations or environments. Changes in the environment or interactions with other species can render an adaptation less useful or even harmful over time.
Physical adaptations are modifications or changes in an organism's body structure or function that help it survive and thrive in its environment. These adaptations can include things like changes in body shape, color, or the development of specific organs or abilities that aid in the organism's survival and reproduction. Examples include camouflage, protective armor, or specialized appendages for feeding or locomotion.
The purpose of all adaptations is to help organisms survive and reproduce in their specific environment. Adaptations can include physical characteristics, behaviors, or physiological processes that increase an organism's chances of survival and reproduction.
Adaptations are changes in an organism's physical or behavioral characteristics that help it survive and reproduce in its environment. These changes can be gradual over many generations through natural selection, allowing individuals with beneficial traits to pass them on to their offspring. Adaptations increase an organism's fitness by enhancing its ability to thrive in its specific habitat.
Those features are called adaptations. Adaptations are traits or behaviors that help an organism survive and reproduce in its environment.

The blue whale has several adaptations that help it survive in its habitat. They include blubber for warmth, a sleek shape for swimming and they never need to sleep.
The color of their coat helps them blend into the environment so that they can stalk prey.
Evolutionary adaptations: Traits developed over time through natural selection to help a species survive in its environment. Behavioral adaptations: Changes in an organism's behavior that help it better respond to its surroundings, such as migration or hibernation. Structural adaptations: Physical features or attributes that help an organism better function or survive in its environment, like camouflage or protective shells.
Fish have many adaptations that help them survive their environment. Their gills are part of their adaptations that helps them in respiration. Fins also come in handy for purposes of mobility.
