The evidence that the text states explicitly is: "The farmer set his horse free." This is clear from the part where it mentions that the farmer opened the door and turned the horse adrift. The other statements about the farmer's feelings and the horse's future are not explicitly stated in the text.
A farmer had a horse that had been a faithful servant to him: but he was now grown too old to work; so the farmer would give him nothing more to eat, and said, "I want you no longer, so take yourself off out of my stable; I shall not take you back again until you are stronger than a lion." Then he opened the door and turned him adrift.
