I talked to a friend earlier, who successfully got the horse, and it turns out that there are two types of emails being sent out, and if you get the wrong one unless someone who got the right one helps you. I got an email with a link that was pretty much non descriptive. He on the other hand got long link with stuff that hints to a horse unlocking process in the URL. Anyway, he sent me the whole link and I tried it out while being logged in and behold, I am being redirected straight to the horse page where you can accept or deny your free gift. The foal's sitting on my farm now, so you could say this method works. So if you got hosed, try getting the link from a friend who succeeded and try using it.
