When using a horse armor item on a tamed horse, the Times Used statistic will not increase, despite the player using the item for its intended purpose.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a new world (for empty stats)
2. Spawn/Summon a horse
3. Tame it (can use golden apples to speed te
4. Equip horse armor onto it
5. Check the Items tab in the statistics screen

Observed Behavior:

The statistic for horse armor will not be present, despite the player using the item.

Expected Result:

The statistic should increase because the player is using the item for its intended purpose. The current behavior is unlike player armor, which does increase its Times Used stat when equipping any armor piece.
