In my research about the Campaing in Russia I discovered following:

During the period 15 Aug – 14 Nov. 1812 Napoleon rode 14 different horses.
Here are their names:

Emir
Roitelet
Moscou
Embelli
Courtois Le Cid
Tauris
Lutzelberg

Coquet Kurde
Varsovie
Montevideo
Bavarois
Vineux Linotte

I know, I am a Dutchman, so it will be full of mistakes.
But I hope you understand what I want to tell you!
