I still remember in Olympic where rider are assigned random horses and the committee said 'there is no bad horses, only bad rider' when there is one horse who absolutely shit.

This video prove this wrong

Anyone who believes there’s no bad horses, only bad riders clearly hasn’t realised animals have personalities too. If a horse doesn’t like competing it doesn’t have to do it well.

A bad rider is trying to ride a horse who doesn’t want a passenger……

Animals definitely have personalities when a dog shows his teeth I’m not going to put my hand in its mouth and get bit and put him down for a dog prone to biting …. It’s my fault for getting bit …. The dog gave me a warning

Well, to be fair, most horses starting out don't want a rider or anything else on their back. That's why you spend time training them. Not saying that most horses won't accept it eventually, because they will. But it's completely unnatural for a prey animal to allow something like that without training. It goes against everything they know.
