Screaming OT I know, but I had an informative chat with a horse rider a couple of days ago. I pass a few stables on my commute, so horses are a regular fellow road-user. I've always been pretty respectful around our equine friends (its the mad eyes!) and I've never really known what to do when you catch a horse and rider on the road. According to matey, its ok to give a loudish shout of "cyclist" or somesuch as this doesn't normally freak the beast out. Needless to say, Airzounds are not ideal under such circumstances.
NB This doesn't apply to the New Forest ponies, who are clearly on some sort of Methadone treatment programme. I've never even seen a New Forest pony so much as raise its eyebrows, even when its backend has just been run over by a truck.
