A horse must come first. If you don’t believe that, if you are not prepared to feed and take care of him before you do anything for yourself,

 then you shouldn’t have a horse. You probably wouldn’t want one anyway.

The people who want horses, the horse maniacs, enjoy the stable work as much as the actual riding`
