WEST BRIDGFORD, England, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- A British horse enthusiast shared video of her portly miniature horse working off some of his pounds with some high-energy exercise ball playtime.

Basil pushes, chases, and jumps on the ball during his whirlwind playtime, showing off some impressive energy levels for an animal of his size.

Sparham said Basil wore himself out playing with the ball and needed a nap directly following his playtime.
