The left loves the cuties style of spotlighting stuff huh? So this person believes in the systemic system of oppression so he beats and works a horse to death like it was some slave. WTF!
That really doesn't work, horses support their weight by locking their knees and ligaments in their legs. If they are unable to stand after a few hours and have to support their weight on any other part of their body they generally are injured buy this and die.
Horses can turn sick and die real easy. You have to constantly keep an eye on them, even when they’re just roamin around a field. A city environment presents additional risks, but you don’t have to be a fucking farrier to know that concrete and asphalt is going to be hell on hooves.
Running that far, that fast, on pavement with no protective shoeing means the horse likely has what is called mechanical founder -- their hooves literally separate from the tissue underneath and the bones of the feet can come through the bottom. It's a horribly painful thing; there is no medical correction if it goes catastrophic (and even a severe case leaves the animal crippled and in pain the rest of its life), so the best thing to do is to euthanize it.
Horses can't lay on their sides for long periods of time; their body weight is too much, and they need to be able to move around in order to keep blood flowing to their extremities and to help digest their food.

Any kind of harness would put the weight on the horses body and would be very similar to the horse laying down.
It's not totally impossible, but unlikely. They have some solutions but generally they use this type of stuff on million dollar race horses. It's really expensive. https://www.horsetalk.co.nz/2019/04/02/rehab-harness-injured-horses/

They can’t survive long periods on the ground. Too heavy.
I think there are some treatments like you describe, with slings and special track systems in barns, but... not at this level of care.
Horses aren't very good at healing sadly.
