It's four horses in the sixth chapter of Revelation:
The first horse is white and represents the Conquerer Revelation. 6:2:
And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.
The second horse is a fiery red and represents Conflict on the Earth Revelation. 6:4:
Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.
The third horse is a blacck and represents Scarcity on Earth Revelation: 6:5-6:
5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, “A quart[c] of wheat for a denarius,[d] and three quarts of barley for a denarius; and do not harm the oil and the wine.”
And the forth horse is a pale horse(1) and it represents Widespread Death on Earth and is called death. Revelation 6:7-8:
7 When He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature saying, “Come and see.” 8 So I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him who sat on it was Death, and Hades followed with him. And power was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, with hunger, with death, and by the beasts of the earth.
And the Bible has more horses in other places but I think you were refering to Revelations and this passage of the book. But if not you could email me.
(1): Yes, a pale horse is a color it's like greyish-yellow are something like that I think.)

In Revelation6:1-7 speaks of the colored horses and gives an excellent explanation also.
First, comes the Christ our King to do Battle with Satan at the battle of the Armageddon
Second,A Fiery-colored horse, He and his rider represent the Wars Humanity has fought over the centuries.
Third, A Black horse and the one seated on it a pair of scales. He and his rider stand for the famine upon the earth.
Lastly, The Pale horse that stands for Death!
I am not going to get into my personal believes, because that is not what you asked.
I hope the answer helped, but it will help more if you read Rev.6:1-7 for yourself!

If you are talking about the Horses in Revelations they were Vehicles that carried the over comers was White. the the Red horse carried War. the the Black Horse was world Economy and trade. the Pale Horse really ( Dung Colored) was Armies. Hippos -Hippikon the word used in the New Testament , ment forces, the only time Horse is used in the New Testament is in Revelations in Chapters 6-14-19

Rev. 6: 1-8 mention FOUR horses: white, fiery red, black, and pale. If you exclude white and black as not being colors, that leaves the other two.
Never-the-less, I will give you the meaning of all four:
1. white horse - the church in the apostolic age; pure and conquering (A.D. 31 - 100)
2. fiery red horse - the violent persecutions the church suffered at the hands of the Caesars (A.D. 100 - 313)
3. black horse - defeat and corruption of the church (313 - 538)
4. pale horse - fear and death that came to the church from within (538 - 1517).
That is the parallel of the first four churches mentioned in Rev. 2.
Also, Zechariah Ch.6, v. 1 - 3, mention four colored horses in this order: red, black, white, and grisled and bay. Their meaning is unclear although v. 5 - 7 attempt to clarify what they are.

If you think the first white horse's rider is Jesus, you are sadly mistaken or misinformed. He was given a bow, but no arrows.and he went forth conquering and to conquer. He is the anti-christ. The second white horse's rider is Jesus, who's name is faithful and true, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

White - clean and righteous warfare with Jesus Christ as the rider.
Fiery - Man-made, international warfare with needless bloodshed and pain.
Black - Famine
Pale - Death
