anyone know if the passes ufos will be running this weekend? you know the one that is buy so many passes get go many free ufos.

Far as I know - no, but that's not to say that they won't run (UFOs like that tend to be a random surprise and not something we test)

What's the name of the purple rainbow horse? (Don't think this needs a spoiler because we all learned colors at five, excuse me if I'm wrong)
Depends on which one you mean (there's two that fit the description:
Click to displayDevoted Indigo - who is the prize is the upcoming Underwater Excavations

Brave Purple - who is the prize in the Summer Ride promotion that will be happening sometime in the future (after the Underwater Excavations)

Anyone know what the next Promotion is going to be? And can you please explain it!

Hopefully Shorah Nagi or some other helpful person will come and explain it.
Methinks my next avatar is going to be a joke about pressing a button to summon me to this forum...Here you go, the explanation of how it works with screen shots and everything:
Click to displayExcavate the sea bead to find gifts that were lost at sea. Beware of the traps!
*How do I excavate?
• Choose the area you want to excavate
• Discover what is hidden there
• Be patient between excavations
• Exchange your tools and the relics you’ve found for more powerful tools
~*~
Basically - you'll have a screen showing various patches of dirt. You dig in these patches to find Items (regular & black market items), Relics (which you trade for better tools over time), or Bones (which are needed to complete the skeleton to win the Divine horse - Devoted Indigo). There is also a chance you'll find a Trap - which will delay you from digging for 6 hours unless you complete an objective.
Here are some screen shots of the Underwater Excavations:

Finding some equus as a prize

Finding a bone - sorry, it's in French. You need to collect all 162 bones before Devoted Indigo will be yours.

Finding a relic

The Prize list for the promotion.
There will also be 'UFOs' offering Bones, Relics, and Prizes that you can find around Howrse. However, unlike regular UFOs which move around - these will be static images that do not move, so you need to pay close attention:
Relic UFO

These two images are from the Cursed Sands (the 2013 variant of this promotion) but the 'UFOs' used for the Underwater Excavations look very similar. As I lack screen shots of the proper ones, I'm showing these to help people get an idea of what to look for:
Prize UFO *Clicking on this will reward you one of the possible prizes (note that it will be a brown chest with a blue background as opposed to the gold one of this image)

Bone UFO *Clicking on this will give you 1 bone for your skeleton (note that it will be a white bone with no adornment on a blue background as opposed to the gold and brown in this image)

~*~
You need to trade your tools and Relics for better tools - what tool you have determines how many times you can dig in a day:
Snorkel and Mask (10 digs)
Oxygen Tank (15 digs)
Propeller (25 digs)
Robot (30 digs)
After you have the Robot tool - you'll also have the option to trade 12 Relics for 1 mine (which gives you 1 additional dig per mine)
Additional help will be given in the form of Mine Packs. 1 Pass gets you 3 mines - which give you 3 additional digs. There will also be an event offering double mines (so 6 mines for 1 pass)

I should have added. the spoiler below.
Are they putting this item as a limited time pass purchase BM item as you can't buy it right now.
Click to display
That's what it looks like to me (as I recall a similar banner used at one point for the 5th Element)...but I've not heard anything on this.
