why do the Fellowship, when they leave Rivendell, not take horses/ponies

their succes lay in stealth, it is difficult to hide for spies (crebain?) when you have horses with you. also the redhorn pass was difficult to travel with horses, and what about Moria? I think Gandalf thought that they had to go through Moria before they left Rivendel, (and just geve the caradhras a try because he didn't like this) and therefore decided not to take horses.
