Equorum Probatio

[Teallaura]

What is it, exactly? Near as I can figure it's a cavalry parade - maybe a festival to honor the cavalry? I can't find any detail besides it occurred on November 14th.

Today is a parade of cavalrymen, the Equorum Probatio. Little is known about
it, but the festivities were most probably similar to those that took place
in the Equitum Romanorum Probatio of July 15th and/or the Equorum Probatio
of September 14th. For a description of the parade on July 15th see
Dionysius of Halicarnassus 6.13.14.
