There is a sense of "drink" which encompasses raising a glass to your mouth and ingesting the liquid in it, or in the case of horses, lowering their head to the water, taking some into the mouth and swallowing it.
Sticking a tube down a horse's throat certainly achieves something, but not precisely this.
Presumably your goal is a hydrated horse, however.
You could alo be trying to drug the horse or provide him with nutritional supplementation in liquid form.
Another example of the danger of explicit goal maximizers.
