Not actually. How exactly would less weight=more HP? Its actually that there is less weight for the already exisiting HP to push.

yeah, it doesn't ADD horses, it lowers the weight to HP ratio... Thus making it feel like there's more horses, when actually, they are doing less work while you get the bonus of being slightly, very very slightly, faster... Well, depending on how much weight you actually remove
