The stages of life for a horse are: - Foal (or suckling); until weaned, usually 4-6 months - Weanling (until a year old, or in some breeds, the next January 1st) - Yearling - Two-year-old (in racing, this is known as a juvenile) - Three-year-old (futurity) No special terms exist past this, except for "aged," the definition of which can vary. No special term is really used after the horse is a yearling. Most people will also refer to the horse by gender terms; "colt," "filly," "mare," "stallion," and "gelding."
