The horse has resisted standardization.
From Wiki: Horsepower;
Horsepower from a horse
In 1993, R. D. Stevenson and R. J. Wassersug published an article calculating the upper limit to an animal's power output.[9] The peak power over a few seconds has been measured to be as high as 14.9 hp. However, Stevenson and Wassersug observe that for sustained activity, a work rate of about 1 hp per horse is consistent with agricultural advice from both 19th and 20th century sources.
