I'm not surprised the poor thing was scared......
Its interesting what recent means in these articles.

Here Duncan reports on the same find in 2018.
And while the horse may have been very frightened, it wasn't petrified.
blimey, took that site 2 years to report on the same story....
I think it was scared stiff at the very least
Don't know if this - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/nov/21/pompeii-dig-reveals-almost-perfect-remains-of-a-master-and-his-slave - is the same villa as the horse.
possibly

Surely it's quite important not to frighten the horses.
