That is a total of 2050.60 miles, and it is mostly highway travel!
In a car that would be 31 hours or so, without breaks. Without the highways I wouldn't even want to think of how long it would take, but I would estimate you would have to add on another 300 or so miles.
Considering that this is true "Horses need a 30-minute break every 2 to 3 hours. At this time offer them some water. They don't have to be taken out of the trailer just standing still is a rest for them" and you will be stopping to sleep and such for 10 hours a day, You will only be able to travel 12 hours a day.
If you find out how fast your horse walks, you can figure it out from there!
