Can I engineer a lighter bone structure?

The concept is simple:

• I want to create a horse species, that are like the Superman of horses and can easily pull of acts, we've seen them done in movies.

One of the many steps in this is to create lighter bones for them with the same strength as their original version.

Would it be possible to engineer (like a Civil engineer) a lighter microstructure, that replaces the compact bone, using the same materials (e.g: calcium, minerals, etc...) in it?

• Tech level:
  • Quantum Supercomputers (for simulating complex organisms).
  • Plenty of information on genetic engineering. (and a "For Dummies" book, of course)
