geldings
Horses without testicles
Geldings are castrated male horses.
The plural of gelding, the term applies to horses neutered to make them calmer and more manageable for riding or work.
Geldings lack the temperamental unpredictability of stallions while retaining their size and strength: The stable keeps mostly geldings for trail rides.
