Heterotrophs are organisms that are not capable of synthesizing their own food. An autotroph on the other hand, is able to synthesize its own food starting with simple molecules and energy.
A horse has to consume food present in the outside world and does not have a mechanism for producing nutrient molecules and energy inherently. So a horse is a heterotroph.
