Time to nitpick, but why would the "most perfect horse" have omniscience and omniptence? What does a horse need with said characteristics? To me, and Plato, the most perfect version of some concept is the idealized version. In essence, an omniscience and omnipotent horse would be an imperfect horse simply because it outsteps what a horse should be capable of.
There is another argument as to the redundancy of saying omniscient and the following it with omnipotent. By default, if one knows everything, then one is going to be able to accomplish anything. In other words, if you wish to commit some act and are omniscient, you will, by default, know how to perform said act given your circumstances. Thus adding omnipotent to omniscient is a tad redundant.
