The young male race horse came from a long line of
winners, and did wonderfully in time trials. However, in actual
races he proved a little too romantic, and could never quite
bring himself to pass a mare.
So one day the trainer went to him and told him he'd have
to be castrated. The young horse, knowing that it was either
this or the glue factory, took it philosophically. After all,
having the operation was almost a certain guarantee of a long and
illustrious racing career.
After a short recovery period, the horse was again run in
time trials, and found to do as well as ever. But the first time
he actually ran in a race, he only went about ten paces, before
getting a dejected look on his face, turning around, and ambling
back to the starting gates.
"What's the matter?" asked the trainer, "you were doing
great!"
"Yeah, well how would you feel" replied the horse, "if
five thousand people took one look at you and shouted 'they're
off!'?"
