Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 7963 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had a horse

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَصْرِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الثَّوْرِيُّ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ رَاشِدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ لَقِيطٍ أَبِي الْمَشَّاءِ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ: كَانَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَسٌ، فَوَهَبَهُ لِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، فَكَانَ يَسْمَعُ صَهِيلَهُ، ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ فَقْدَهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا فَعَلَ فَرَسُكَ؟» قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَخْصَيْتُهُ. فَقَالَ: «الْخَيْلُ فِي نَوَاصِيهَا الْخَيْرُ، وَالْمَغْنَمُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ نَوَاصِيهَا دِفَاؤُهَا، وَأَذْنَابُهَا مَذَابُّهَا»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a horse, which he gave as a gift to a man from the Ansar. He used to hear its neighing; then one day he did not find it (did not hear its voice), so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "What has become of your horse?" He said: O Messenger of Allah, I have castrated it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Goodness is tied to the forelocks of horses, and spoils are bound to their forelocks until the Day of Resurrection; their forelocks are their warmth (strength), and their tails are their means of driving away flies."
