Sleipnir can take the Disengage or Dash action as a bonus action on each of his turns. Sleipnir ignores difficult terrain, and magical effects can't reduce his speed or cause him to be restrained.

Sleipnir can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components: At will: expeditious retreat, pass without trace, plane shift (self and rider only), shillelagh Legendary Ability (3/Day). If Sleipnir fails an ability check, he can choose to succeed instead. Legendary Resistance (3/Day). If Sleipnir fails a saving throw, he can choose to succeed instead. Reckless. At the start of his turn, Sleipnir can gain advantage on all melee weapon attack rolls he makes during that turn, but attack rolls against him have advantage until the start of his next turn.
