Don’t forget that a normal horse has an INT of 2 which means it can only learn 6 tricks. Combat Riding gives 6 tricks, but only includes attack once. So, a normal horse cannot take the second attack trick without raising its INT or using something like the bridle of tricks. This means most ordinary combat trained horses will not attack unnatural creatures. An animal companion gets bonus tricks so they can easily avoid this problem.
so basically, just training the attack is undoable fora normal horse, so combat training it should be too. if it is possible to train it, it is basically useless to do so in 3 weeks since it only adds the attack trick which can be done 3 times faster just teaching it directly ?
