Actually, this probably is the origin of them. Orome was the Vala responsible, largely, for the creation of the animate beasts of the earth; that he also created this particular race of horses, a special and clearly a holy breed -- for the benefit of the Children of Illuvatar, perhaps, or simply because he loved them -- I would guess to be the basic truth.
