Golden Horse Armor item in Minecraft
The Golden Horse Armor is armor for a horse: put it in the armor slot of a tamed horse's inventory to protect it in fights and falls. Found in the same loot chests, it gives 7 armor points, more than iron, unlike golden armor for players. It works like every other horse armor; the Iron Horse Armor page explains how to equip it.
It cannot be crafted; it can be found in chests.
