if a horse doesnt want to race, it wont race. if it doesnt want to jump, it will refuse to jump.

I dont think any horse really wants to jump any jump does it? I cant imagine they do it out of sheer fun. They do it because they're whipped and forced over the jumps by the riders, then, when they jump awkwardly, they break their legs. Lovely!
 
some horses enjoy racing.

u can see that when you get loose horses on a racecourse after they unshipped their rider... some carry on racing. others try and scarper.

I see you're some kind of horse whisperer who really knows what the horses think. They carry on running because it's what they've been trained to do.
