Year of the Horse in Japanese is 辰年 which is read umadoshi. The Japanese word umadoshi meaning "Year of the Horse" is composed of the kanji 辰 (read uma) meaning "sign of the horse" (though more commonly it means "noon") and 年 (read doshi) meaning "year". If you are looking for a design for the animal "horse" then consider using 馬 Horse (uma).
