What you have to do is to examinate all other parts of his body and see if there is no problem....If there is no apparent problem, the only way to know if the testicles are really the problem is removing them and then, see if the horse goes well after that.

fmc,
I think others have given you some solid advice. Testicles can interfere with running.
From my own experience, two of mine have been gelded. one because he got too "coltish" as a 2yo and nobody could handle him. He became too dangerous.
The other one, that I had hoped to bring to the shed after his career hasn't shown enough desirable qualities on the track to make that option worthwhile.
The trainer said that his testicles were an issue with his running...so off they went.
It was a decision that was for the best. So, take that for what it's worth.
At least now, he whinnies in a higher octave and might have a future career in the "Vienna Horse (not boys') Choir", (JK).
Good luck!
