I was going to respond to this like 11 days ago. Because I am a girl, therefore I am interested in horses. I do not understand why this is the case, but it's weirdly common.
Those sound like almost-wild ponies, and I am totally fascinated by them. There are nearly-wild ponies on islands off the coast of South Carolina, and wild mustangs in various national parks here, and the government is always trying to get rid of them because they supposedly eat all the plants and run around destroying the land with their hooves. Or whatever. So I'm really impressed that people can just leave ponies out on the moors and they don't all get shot from a helicopter or something.
(also, it turns out that even Enid Blyton wasn't very Enid Blyton.)
