All horses are herbivores - they eat grass and some other pasture plants. Shetland ponies are used to a very tough climate and can survive on less palatable plants than most other horses, but they are still herbivores.

They are prey.

Predators are carnivorous or omnivorous, and ponies are herbivores; also, horses evolved their natural running skills to escape predators. The only thing they prey on is grass.
