The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
عَن أنسٍ قَالَ: لَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْدَ النِّسَاءِ من الْخَيل. رَوَاهُ النَّسَائِيّ
Anas said that, after women, nothing was dearer to God's Messenger than horses.
Nasa’i transmitted it.
