Believed to be among the luckiest horses in the world by Nelson, the animals were rescued over several years and placed at the ranch. Now they get hand-fed twice a day. “When you’re here, you’re in luck, and when you’re not, you’re out of luck,” said Nelson about his favorite ranch.

Not only from his rescuing act, Nelson’s love for horses is also manifested through his music. He even released a song titled ‘A Horse Called Music’ in 1989. The country singer also produced a video called ‘The Love of Horses’ in 2015. The video even won the People’s Silver Telly Award.
