Something I found, although t could be a random one from an old egg. The horses are spawning naturally in the plains. I think though it is very rare as I only found one baby.
You can put chests on donkeys, I dont know how to use them when they're on one though. also the leash is in the tool section, but it doesnt have a name.
As far as I can tell, you only have to keep mounting them until they stop throwing you off.
I have not tested that. though i have tested the Jump length of a horse and even at half charge you can jump atleast 5 blocks long. Will test further to see the max length of a jumping horse.
after a bit more testing i have some results on jump distance.
5 blocks is easy. same for 6. 7 blocks is a bit more diffcult and 8 is decently hard. 9 is also a bit hard and 10 is impossible. will test with Speed and Jump boosts.
Ok I can confirm that all Jump and Speed boosts do NOT affect Horses. you can however heal them with splash potions of healing and regen.
You have to get the beta launcher to get this and any later snapshots. so you need to get that. you can still play with your old Jar through the old launcher.
I'm on WIndows Vista and can't even download the launcher. I am at a total loss. It's supposedly been successfully downloaded at least 5 times, to different locations on my computer, but searching those areas or folders manually, and doing a search of my entire computer, doesn't turn up the file, or any file with 'minecraft' in its name that was recently created or downloaded. I've googled this and searched the forum but can't find anyone else who had this problem, so maybe I'm somehow being an idiot... but I'm at my wit's end.
Edit: tried disabling the link scanner in AVG and tried again, but the file still does not exist on my hard drive after 2 supposed completed downloads. I'm not getting any errors in anything, there is just literally no file...
Ok heres what I found out so far.
Hay bales and leashes don't have a name yet.
You can tame a horse/donkey with apples, wheat sugar, or by mounting them a bunch.
After taming a horse/donkey, you can put a horse saddle on them.
Donkeys can hold their own chest (can't open them yet)
Horse babies can be fed to grow faster (same food as in taming)
Different breeds have different health
You can tie any passive mob to a leash
Theres more but I don;t feel like typing it all
Oh yea they also slowly regenerate health
You can leash more then one horse at a time.
Horses can wear horse armor
Theres a few bugs too.
When killing a horse/mule, you they will drop a regular saddle (if they had one on)
You can get as many leashes as you want by spam clicking an animal with a leash.

I would probably check Virus scaning software to see if its throwing any errors. Other than that keep trying. I know im running Win 7 and didnt have any issues at all. other than that since im not an expert on Vista stuff i cant help to much.
For creative, it doesn't have a name yet. The best way to find it is to turn on technical mode (hold f3 then H) and search 420 in the creative inventory. Or you could just find it. I have no idea what the recipe is.
Do this but instead of whatever technical mode is do /give (your name here) 420 (amount)
Can you cross water while riding the horse? I didn't have any luck with trying. Recipe for saddle found from Seth's video: leather like in a helmet with iron "V" upside down beneath it (I think).

I belive so.
for now they are only available if cheats are on
Do this but instead of whatever technical mode is do /give (your name here) 420 (amount)
Ps does anyone know what technical mode is
I don't think so, in my 1.6 test world in plains There weren't any so I had to use eggs
What's up doc?
Leashes are also in the Tools Section of the creative menu. i belive next to Diamond tools
in the code there are unused mob textures
skeletal horse
and undead
NBT POWER!!!!
Praise be to Spode.
