Generic references for sub class object

Hi all,
What is the advantage of having generic reference to sub class objects?

Animal h = new Horse();

Are you talking about programing to an interface rather than implementations?
I am confused. Can you elaborate a little?

Hi Dheeraj,
Consider we have a super class A and a sub class B. What is the advantage of having super class reference type for a sub class object? Like,
A a = new B();
