Horses typically sleep around 2 to 3 hours which is how much sleep the horse needs for good health and to have the energy the horse needs during the day.

Some horses may even be asleep even when there eyes are open and some horses can even sleep standing up.

I wish I could sleep with my eyes open and standing up.
