The look of the horse... Seems deeply unhappy.
Horses didn't evolve to carry such weight on their backs, or to be kept and controlled by people riding them. It can't feel great.
Oh and in order to be ridden, horses need to be 'broken in' first, as in literally have their will broken and tamed to the point where they accept people climbing on them and directing them to move, without the horse biting, bucking of bolting.
It's really fucked up if you think about it. Animal abuse is so normalised that most will argue against horse riding being abusive to horses. No animal naturally wants to be broken and used by humans.
