Russian term or phrase: ставить коня на выстойку
Она не стала ставить коня на выстойку, как обычно, а распрягла, сняла с него сбрую, накинула на спину попону, сделанную из старой кошмы, и надела на голову торбу с парой пригоршней овса на дне.

I guess this is something like 'stand the horse in its stall' or 'leave it standing'

turn the horse out


Explanation:
разг. выдерживание лошади без еды и питья после тяжёлой нагрузки с целью отдыха и остывания

After a hard workout, you might be tempted to put your horse in a deeply bedded stall for a nice rest. But turnout is actually better, weather permitting, because he’ll be free to move around and less likely to show any “day-after” stiffness.

Instead, try to get your horse some turnout time, even if it’s only for an hour or two after a workout. In turnout, horses can walk around freely. The movement helps to promote circulation through their legs, preventing or reducing swelling. Light, frequent movement also reduces overall muscle soreness after a tough workout.

What does it mean to turn the horses out?
What's getting turned out mean? It means that your horse is moved to a pasture or strip of land that allows them the freedom to run, play and get all their energy out. Some horses get turned out more often than others depending on age, health, allergies, and a few other stipulations.

neutral  Michael Sarni: Sounds good, but in a turnout horses interact socially and - graze. https://www.horseandhound.co.uk/plus/vet-clinic/group-turnou... There's no food in выстойка.

  -> This is the closest Anglo-Saxon equivalent. Turnout has not food except for the grass under foot.

Reference: Что такое "выстойка" в данном контексте?

Reference information:
Даже девушка-казачка помнит, что коня нельзя сразу расседлать и напоить. Необходимо время, чтобы он остыл. А если на нем скакали долго и быстро, надо еще и поводить его по двору, а не привязывать сразу к коновязи.
...
ВЫСТОЙКА
Это участок земли, огороженный жердями или кругляком. Выстойка тоже разгорожена на две половины (мы говорим о двух конях), есть ясли для сена. В выстойке коней не привязывают. Они должны ходить, а не стоять на месте.
...
Зимой коней тоже выводят в выстойку, на воздух. Если холодно, покрывают попоной и долго на морозе не держат. Старики говорили в таких случаях: «Пущай яво в выстойке походют, крепши поедят». Летом строевые кони постоянно в выстойке. Если вдруг ливень или ураган, сами войдут в конюшню, двери открыты.
