Unfortunately, yes, tomato and potato plants can be toxic to horses (see link below) and I would think if it can be life threatening to horses would most certainly be so to a small shetland. I'm so very very sorry your daughter has lost her friend.
You can google "plants toxic to horses" and get numerous websites that list common yard & garden plants that can be toxic, even to the point of fatality, to horses.
