"Horse" is a gender neutral term - it can refer to either a male or female. A male horse is a stallion, while a castrated male horse is a gelding. A female horse is a mare. A young male horse is a colt, a young female horse is a filly and a young horse (gender neutral) is a foal.

Male - Stallion if in tact, gelding if not, male foals are called colts

Female - Mare, female foals are called fillies.
A female horse is a filly when under 2 years old and a mare when over two years. A male horse is a colt when under 2 years old and a stallion when over two years, unless the horse has been neutered and then it is called a gelding.
