My horse update - Help needed!

[fmc123412]

Well,

Yesterday my horse (Ojo de Agua) ran for the second time. He got 7th place, out of 8 horses in the field.

As I have already said in another thread, he has a problem in his testicles. One of the testicles is located near his abdomen. This cause a lot of pain during the final stretch (when the horse has to use his final reserves).

Accordingly to the trainer, he is one of the best horses on his barn. And he has potential to win even some group races. But only if we proceed into a surgery, removing his testicles.

The replay of his race (5th race - páreo 005, horse number 7) is below:

As you can see in the replay, he lead the race until the final stretch, when he almost stopped running.

My doubts are:

- Is there a possibility that this problem only reflects during the race and not during his workouts? I mean, may he be all that good on his workouts and act that poorly during the race?

- Removing his testicles can really eliminate the problem?

- Can you see if he really has potential watching this race??

I dont know if anybody will be able to answer my questions anyway, but thank you very much in advance!

See you!
Felipe
