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



Horse: Taco, a 4-year-old 17.1-hand bay Thoroughbred gelding in Canyon Country, Calif.
Organization: Win Place Home



Taco is beautiful, playful, and engaging. He would make an amazing flat or trail horse. He is all about the bling! Taco retired from racing due to two broken sesamoids in his left front. He is cleared to become a walk/trot pleasure or trail horse. He will be the fanciest trail horse you’ll ever see! Adoption price is negotiable. The home is what is most important! Could he be your #righthorse?
