Horses need to be entertained, but they don't always need another horse. My friend had a show draft horse, a Belgian, who lived with a goat. They would chase each other around the paddock. She built a platform that the goat could climb and get up on the horse's back and stand there while the horse ate. The horse seemed to like it.
She wasn't very creative with names. I don't remember the name of the horse, but the goat was "Goater," Her dogs were "Dogger1, Dogger2, Dogger3, etc." Same with her cats.
