[MC-71842] Cannot mount horses/donkeys in SMP

When I right click on a horse with empty hands nothing happens. I am only able to test this on untamed horses/donkeys, but have tried it on a freshly spawned horse as well as two naturally spawned donkeys with the same result.

Right clicking with an item in my hands causes the horse to rear/neigh. Mounting boats still works.

I can reproduce this after server restart on my local machine. Can reproduce after changi gamemode to creative. Can reproduce with different key mapped to 'use/place'

cannot reproduce in single player game. Cannot reproduce on new server hosted in the same way with the same settings.

CAN reproduce in new server by replacing new world files with world files from original server.

Cannot reproduce when deleting player data from server. Attaching problematic player data for review, since deleting/reforming that data resolved the issue.

This is not a duplicate of MC-61535, considering I am able to produce the issue without breeding, and considering that the issue goes away when deleting player data.

Seconded, Some horses/donkeys are mountable and tameable and others don't allow a player to mount whatsoever. Can also reproduce on server restart and it's the same horses that don't work each time.

Sam, have you tried deleting your player dat in world/players (or wherever those server files are)? That fixed it for me and I'm interested to see if that works for others.

Phillip, I took a look at this today and I think I may have "solved" it - hoping you can confirm, but it seems like all I had to do to get these horses to let me sit on them initially, is feed them a lot of sugar. All horses are not made equal apparently. I double checked and it only worked after I gave the horse 2+ sugar. (but weirdly the camera would move as if to mount when right clicking a horse even after only feeding it one sugar, without mounting). All very mysterious. I'm leaning towards individual horse entity data being generated incorrectly on occasion.
