"Urban Cowboy: NYC Horseback Riding: On Horseback in the Big Town," by Elzy Kolb, GORP (article cached on Google)

"I found that the horses in city stables live up to New York's high-energy vibe. In the Bronx and Queens, my horses were enthusiastic and ready to run for most of an hour's ride; I got occasional canters out of my stately Manhattan and Staten Island steeds; and my Brooklyn mount gave me a hard, fast trot."
