I made a point of living almost close enough to walk to work. I still drive most of the time, but in an emergency I could easily get form home to work or vice versa.

I know your craftiness Prof smiley - laugh is it a word puzzle

If so ten horses has 9 letters and the 9 letters will take 9 spaces or stables.

Is that close

If the nine stalls are all in a row, side by side, they'll be bounded by ten walls or rails between them, including the two on the ends, so if you either tether the horse to them or have them straddle the rails, that might do it.
