Welcome to Horse Illustrated’s weekly installment of the My Right Horse Adoptable Horse of the Week, offered in partnership with The Right Horse. Spring Term is this week’s adoptable horse. Check back weekly for a new featured horse so you can find your #righthorse.



Horse: Spring Term, a 23-year-old 15.3-hand bay Thoroughbred mare in Lancaster, Calif.
Organization: Wild at Heart Horse Rescue



Spring Term is a lovely off-track Thoroughbred (OTTB) mare. She stands at 15.3 hands and has beautiful, smooth gaits. This mature lady will make a wonderful horse for someone that is ready to step up from a lesson horse to their first horse. She does wonderful arena work and has excellent ground manners. She stands for the vet and farrier, ties, clips and bathes. Loads in the trailer like a dream. Is she your #righthorse?
