In theory, you could make the chariot the parent, and each horse-figure a child of the yoke or tongue or whatever. But you really don't need that much complexity. If this view is typical, you really don't
need to parent all of them; just the nearest
one to the camera. The horses are so close
that the details of the other horses won't
be visible. A certain amount of
forward and backward slippage will look
natural anyway.
If the horses were spread farther apart,
so that the straps between them are visible,
you'd have more of a problem. You could
still parent only one horse to the chariot,
and use the "Point At" parameter to make
the in-between straps move properly.
