Well, puttting on my Godlearner hat (mmm, comfy) and applying my Runequest Sight, I see that all horses have a Horse Form Rune (related to the Animal Form Rune), most have a Middle World Rune, but some have Spirit World Runes, others Divine World Runes, etc. So, I'd guess that that 'common horseness' is the Horse Form.

I guess that bog standard horses have the Material World Rune, with the other Worls Runes being uncommon and (by definition) magical.
