How about (like some old platformer) all mounts start with low stats. The buyable mounts have a certain ammount of upgrades, say 14. Then a GUI comes up, a bit like this:

HEALTH - - - - - - - - - -

SPEED - - - - - - - - - - -

Etc. You can then upgrade your mount however you like. The more upgrades, the more the horse costs!
