Definitions
A horse trailer is the North American term for a wheeled vehicle towed behind a truck to transport horses — what the British call a horsebox. It's a practical piece of equipment for ranchers, competitive riders, and anyone moving horses between properties or events. Horse trailers range from bare-bones single-stall models to multi-horse rigs with sleeping quarters for the driver. In the American South and West it's everyday vocabulary; elsewhere it's a regional term that might need a quick translation.
They loaded both mares into the horse trailer before dawn so they'd arrive at the show fresh.
