Summon the Best Possible Horse

Spawn a tamed horse with max speed, jump, and health. Run: /summon horse ~ ~ ~ {Tame:1b,attributes:[{id:"minecraft:movement_speed",base:0.3375},{id:"minecraft:jump_strength",base:1.0},{id:"minecraft:max_health",base:30}]}. Spawns an already-tamed horse with the maximum natural stats: 14.23 blocks/sec speed (0.3375), a ~5-block jump (1.0), and 30 health (15 hearts). Naturally spawned horses roll far worse on all three. Put a saddle on it and it's the fastest legitimate ride in the game. Works on Java Edition 26.2. Last verified June 2026.

Frequently asked questions

Does Summon the Best Possible Horse work on Bedrock Edition?

Bedrock /summon can't set attributes. Best Bedrock option: breed horses repeatedly — foal stats average the parents plus a random roll.

Do you need OP or cheats enabled to use Summon the Best Possible Horse?

Yes — you need operator permissions (OP) on a server, or cheats enabled in your world settings (Java: open to LAN with cheats on; Bedrock: enable cheats in world settings).

Can Summon the Best Possible Horse be used in a command block?

Yes — paste the command into a command block and activate it with a button or redstone signal. Remove the leading slash when using a command block.

Where does the entity appear when you run Summon the Best Possible Horse?

By default it spawns at your current position (~ ~ ~). You can replace those coordinates with specific X Y Z values to spawn it elsewhere.

How do I remove or kill the entity spawned by Summon the Best Possible Horse?

Run /kill @e[type=<entity_type>,limit=1] to remove the nearest entity of that type, or use a sword in creative mode.
