Yes, sue the seller for fraud and misrepresentation if he or she led you to

believe that this horse was really twice as old as it was made out to be

during the seller's pitch to unload it on you.

Yes, a 10 year age differential for a horse would be a material misrepresention. You might even have a claim for punitive damages and attorney fees. Good luck.
