I just checked out the SLS in LA and staring at my in the lobby is what has to be the same exact statue. Surely no one commissioned a second?

They're not exclusive to BA! Anybody can buy them: http://www.moooi.com/products/horse-lamp
I think BA have 3 of them - one at the entrance to GF, one at the entrance to GC South and one on the CCR terrace.

They are certainly an acquired taste!

Seemingly not that 'unique'!

Or perhaps mechanise the thing and convert it into a 'Bucking Bronco' to add a little entertainment for weary travellers!

They have one of those horses in the restaurant at the Sheraton Wall Centre in Vancouver - was sporting arm-bands on its ankles when I saw it....

Yes, there definitely used to be, but I think when they had two in the GF entrance, they didn't have one at the GC South entrance... Not totally sure though!

With a thousand apologies for going off-off-off topic, I am likely to spend a lot of next year in São Paulo. Can you get sauerkraut over there? I might go mad otherwise - and I imagine I could get arrested if I try to smuggle it in.
