Was the horse killed especially for the occasion, and if so, was there anything notable about it? I.e. was it chosen for being a particular color, sex, age, etc.

No. Horses are important when they are in their “prime” age so they mostly only get slaughtered after they breed and shows signs of slowing down. The meat/head/intestines are then stored for later use.
