IMHO, for practicing and learning about good composition, you would probably be better off shooting stationary subjects. It gives you MUCH more freedom in how your photos will turn out. With horses and wildlife you will constantly be adjusting and most likely you will only like maybe 1 out of 100 shots. Live subjects are not an easy thing for beginners to learn on (even more experienced photographers have trouble with live subjects sometimes).
