Excellent

This is a nice little story. I too road a horse at a young age ,but my experience was frightening. I could never bring myself to trying it again. Even though I think they are majestically beautiful. I've never gotten over my fear. Great job.Thanks for sharing your craft with us.

According to metaphysical beliefs, the soul picks the name of the body it chooses to inhabit on its return to earth to continue its spiritual lessons. Interesting that you took to horses after discovering the origin of your name. I'm betting in a past life you may have been a stable boy, a cowboy, or a knight in shining armor. Note the shape of capital P. It stands straight and tall, a little top-heavy maybe. Does that describe you?
One nit:
I road (rode) until the stables moved out of the city.
Interesting write.

I better check to see if that road was changed to rode. I made the mistake once. I might have another one in the piece. Thanks, Spitfire.

A good story about your name. I like the information here.
One little glitch.
I road until the stables - I rode
Otherwise well done.
