This depends primarily on the desires and pocketbook of the rider.
About ten years ago Les Carr rode one horse over 5,000 miles in one
year, but he spent the entire year "on the road" going to rides,
including many week-long multi-day rides.

Typically, two or three horses will do about 2,000 miles in a year,
and quite a few do over 1,000.
