Horsebreaker Zhang Yi said the romance started as the two came to live permanently in Chengdu, joking that their affection has gone beyond bloodlines.
Neith, the white horse, is a Dutch breed, worth about 400,000 RMB. The black one, a French crossbreed, has grabbed gold in a number of Chinese domestic tournaments, such as the 7th China Equestrian Festival last week, where its excellent performance stole visitors' hearts.
Despite being outstandingly popular on the Internet both have to exercise for no less than 45 minutes daily to fulfill their long-term training program, Zhang said.
