Speed
Speed determines how fast your horse moves across the different gaits, and it decides which Division (D1–D8) your horse belongs to.
📈 Divisions
Every horse on Equinox is assigned a Division (D1–D8) based on their maximum gallop speed. Divisions provide a fair speed category system so that horses can compete and train against others at a similar level.
Division 1: 45–50 mph
Division 2: 40–45 mph
Division 3: 35–40 mph
Division 4: 30–35 mph
Division 5: 25–30 mph
Division 6: 20–25 mph
Division 7: 15–20 mph
Division 8: 10–15 mph
➡️ Divisions show only in /h info. Exact speed stats are hidden.
➡️ Division is always based on the horse’s fastest gait (Gallop).
⏩ Speed & Gaits
Each horse can move through the four natural gaits:
Walk: 1–8 mph (0.4–3.3 bps)
Trot: 9–12 mph (3.4–7.2 bps)
Canter: 10–17 mph (7.3–11.3 bps)
Gallop: 18–50 mph (11.4–21 bps)
Training allows horses to unlock their full potential at each gait and improve efficiency over time.
📈 Speed Training
Riding your horse in different gaits trains multiple speed levels at once:
Walk → trains Walk only
Trot → trains Walk + Trot
Canter → trains Walk + Trot + Canter
Gallop → trains Walk + Trot + Canter + Gallop
Every 10 minutes of riding in a gait gives progress toward 1 Level in the affected gaits.
4–7 years
+0.30 mph
7–10 years
+0.20 mph
10–12 years
+0.10 mph
⚠️ After 12 years, speed declines by 5% per year.
