Is there such a thing as a female horse?
A female horse is called a mare. Most mares can make fine riding horses. Some of them suffer from hormonal swings during their heat cycle (estrus) and that makes them harder to handle, but I’ve never had that problem with any of the mares I’ve owned, trained, and ridden. The second natural gender in horses is the entire male, the stallion.

Additionally, if you lift the tail of a female horse, you will find two openings: the anus and the vulva. The best way to determine the age of a female horse, and if you should call the horse a mare or filly is to take a look at the teeth of the horse.
How can you tell if a foal is a male or female?
If the foal is a male, the genital tubercle will be closer toward the umbilical cord, and it will be closer to the anus if the foal is a female.
