The short answer is near 15 HP. The horsepower is the amount a horse can produce for a continuous time period at a slow haul, however in a gallop for short periods that power level shoots up dramatically, this is why a horse can whip say a 5hp mini motorbike. A person can peak at about 1 HP but their continuous power output is about 1/8th HP Interestingly enough the person who came up with the HP as a unit of measure bears the same name as the metric unit of power that's replacing HP
