Yes, mares can be spayed. Every year a few mares are spayed but most mare owners choose to leave a mare intact in case they want to breed her. Mares that are the best candidates for spaying are those with poor conformation, genetic disease's, cross breeds, and those with hormonal problems that lead to aggression and pain.

They are quite rare and are still just called mares, or sometimes spayed mares.

A small cut is made in each side, often under local anaesthetic, and the ovaries are removed but the uterus left in place.

Does a horse become less aggressive with pregnancy?
Each mare is different but most mares do not make significant behavioral changes because they are pregnant. Mares that are nervous or aggressive before pregnancy will very likely be the same way when pregnant and some behaviors may become intensified once the mare foals and her protective behavior kicks in. Like the old "wives tale" that a dog should have a litter of puppies before she is spayed to make her a better pet...mares with behavioral problems will not improve merely through pregnancy and foaling.
