“Find a modern horse skeleton at the Jurassic era strata.”

Bad example.

A modern horse is the product of artificial selection, aka selective breeding.

It is unlikely that any modern horse, including wild horses, were not descendants of horses domesticated at one point or another.

So how does the lack of domesticated features in Jurassic fossils support TToE?

No, it was a perfectly good example which you chose to distort for reasons...?

That term "modern horse" could mean any horse, or even horse ancestor, in the past, say, million years.
You will not find any such horse, or any horse-like creature in the Jurassic period, circa 175 million years ago.

What you do find in mammals 175 million years ago are little critters like Juramaia:
