Dravnr, Horse of Arrows
This horse was once the companion of an archer of legend. When the horse was killed unjustly, its spirit inhabited the archer's quiver and the horse made a new body of arrows. The horse can fire the arrows that make its body and fly. Being a spirit, the horse cannot cross over hallowed ground and is harmed by holy water. (This one is actually based on a joke resulting from a mounted archer PC who carried ungodly amounts of arrows on him).
Tom Dashing, Wanderbull's Cat/Horse
This beast once belonged to the eccentric wizard Wanderbull. During a duel of spells his opponent cast a spell of reincarnation upon Wanderbull, which he was able to reflect--right onto his cat familiar (whoops). Tom now appears in physical manners as a horse, except for his vertically-slit cat eyes. Despite years of living in a horse's body, the cat/horse still sees itself as a housecat, and is taken to activities such as licking itself while in his owner's lap, and hacking up furballs.

Vladimir
This six-legged horse was born of a trickster god and a mortal horse. If one of this horse's hooves are pressed into molten lead, the resultant hoofprint will produce prophecies. Vladimir is a lover of poetry and all spoken and performed arts.
Rhaefaxi, the Horse of a Thousand Bodies
Each sunset, Rhaefaxi dies a screaming, melting death, only to be born anew by sunrise in a new body. Sometimes she is born an owlbear, sometimes a house cat (and very rarely, a horse). Placing an iron band forged over a cold anvil around her neck will cause her to stay in the same form, but also make her resentful. (For Rhaefaxi, I suggest fandangling some way to roll a d26 each sunrise, taking the corresponding letter, and looking for the most appropriate monster that starts with the letter in whatever bestiary is at hand).
