Before people start yelling "But we already have minecarts" or "Minecarts should be the only way to travel besides on feet". Their would be advantages as well as disadvantages for horses over minecarts. Unlike minecarts riding horses would make the player 3 blocks high which would make going and exploring caves a lot harder horses would also be slower. The horses could also die if drop from to high up.
The pros are of course would be you would not have to take hours or days collecting iron and making rails in order to travel, and of course you can go any direction.
Taming:
You could tame it with some apples or wheat and saddle it with a saddle either a new craftable one or them dreaded ones you have to find in a dungeon.
Good idea... But I definately don't think they should be slower than on foot - or did you mean slower than Minecarts? Because, if they did become slower than on foot, then the Cons would overide any good points on this new mob and it would completely useless.

Excuse me, but that was my comment you just read there, bub.

imho tameable horses would b a great idea. just add some rl horse AI such as it wont run off cliffs and such, as for speed id have to say 4x or 5x times norm cause horsies r fast lol, they should also b able to walk/run up 1 block hight and in 2 block deep water causa da long legs. and yes riding tack should be craftable but not like pig saddles(actually call it riding tack like in rl) cause it isnt just a saddle is it, it has stirrups and the bit for the mouth etc... and obviousle all this without mods but as part of an update =D ty for listening to my rant lol

0.0 Of course I meant slower then the minecart.
Few... Then I support.
Can you please elaborate. Why is it "idiotic"?
Of course, when I said slower I meant slower then 3/4 of a minecart top speed.
