In Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered you can buy and ride various horses. This guide shows how to get the best (fastest) horse and also how to get a free horse. The Black Horse is the fastest horse and costs 5000 Gold.
Where to Buy Fastest Horse
The Black Horse (fastest horse) is bought in Cheydinhal > Black Waterside Stables. It’s the town in the northeast of the map. There will be a blue map marker for the stables, you can fast travel to it even if you never went there before.
Go inside the stable house and talk to Tovas Selvani. He will offer the Black Horse for 5000 Gold. At night the stable is locked, but you can skip time until it’s day again.
This is also the most expensive horse in the game. You can make 5000 Gold quickly by playing through all Arena fights in the Imperial City Arena. This only takes 45-60 minutes.
Having a fast horse is one of the best time-savers in the game. The second-fastest horse is the White Horse sold for 4000 Gold in Anvil > Horse Whisperer Stables.
How to Get Free Starter Horse
You can get a free horse in the starting town Imperial City > Chestnut Handy Stables (use fast travel to blue map icon). Enter the stable house, talk to “Snak gra-Bura”, pick the dialogue that you will take any horse. She will gift you a fully armored horse for free.
