When looking to get the rarest horse in Red Dead Redemption 2, you’ll first need to know what that horse looks like. As of right now, the rarest horse breed in Red Dead Redemption 2 is the Arabian. The Arabian comes in a few different coat colors, with the rarest being the Legendary White Coat.
To find the rarest horse in Red Dead Redemption 2 (the Legendary White Coat Arabian), you’ll need to travel North near Ambarino, then head West of Lake Isabella. Because of this area’s beautiful snow-covered scenery, it can be hard to spot the horse due to its Legendary White Coat color. To make things easier, we recommend exploring the area
Once you've found the Legendary White Coat Arabian, you’ll need to catch and tame it. As expected from the rarest horse in Red Dead Redemption 2, this can be quite a challenge. To catch a wild horse, you’ll need to equip your lasso. Then, on horseback or on the ground, carefully approach the horse you’re trying to capture so as to not startle it. If it takes off, you can give chase.
After you’ve caught the horse with your lasso, slowly approach the horse and use either X or Square to calm the horse as you're approaching. With the horse calmed as much as possible, mount the horse and begin the process of trying to break it. As the horse attempts to buck you off, hold your left analog stick, then turn the stick either left or right in response to the direction the horse is bucking.
For example, if the horse bucks right, turn your analog stick to the left. We also recommend tapping X or Square repeatedly to calm the horse as it’s trying to buck you.

Once you break the horse and it stops bucking, you’ll need to work on taming it. This can be done by riding back to Valentine. At first, the horse won’t be too keen on this idea. To calm the horse while riding, slow down, then tap your left analog stick to pat your horse. Once you arrive at the stables in Valentine, you'll need to put a saddle on the horse to claim it.
Until you saddle your new Legendary White Coat Arabian, you'll want to stay mounted on the horse. Once you've put a saddle on the horse, you can dismount and then start the bonding process with your new horse. This can be done by focusing the horse, using L2/LT, then choosing the options to pat it, brush it, and feed it.
Unlike other horses in the game, it's worth reaching the max bond level with the Legendary White Coat Arabian. This is because, in addition to being the rarest horse in Red Dead Redemption 2, it also has the best stats in the game for Health, Speed, Stamina, and Handling. By keeping the above tips in mind, you should now know what the rarest horse is in Red Dead Redemption 2, how to catch it, and how to tame it.
