Someone remarked that this is not a nice horse card because it looks more like a Donkey. I was also wondering about this so I did some research.
I think the reason why it looks a bit odd is that it´s supposed to look like the prehistoric horse (Equus ferus subsp.ferus) rather than the modern one (Equus ferus subsp.caballus). So it´s not the horse as we know it but a different subspecies which is more or less gone extinct today.
See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarpan
In another web page (about some modern and very-small-part-Tarpans) it says: The Tarpan has a very calm disposition. They are friendly, curious and affectionate. The Tarpan is extremely intelligent. They are independent and quite stubborn. The Tarpan, unlike the domesticated modern horse, has not surrendered its freedom to man in trade for food and care, and therefore tends to rely more on its own view of a situation rather than to allow its owner to make decisions for it.
They seem to enjoy being ridden, but they do not like being told where to go.
I must say that calm, intelligent and stubborn sounds just like a Knight of Stones (Pentacles) to me.
