Template:Species-infobox Horses are animals that live on Planet Earth, which appear infrequently in the Mario series. Their only featured appearance to date will be in the Wii version of the upcoming Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games, in which they will be ridden as part of one of the sports. This is a break from most Mario games, in which Yoshis are the main species that are ridden on Mushroom World.
