    [RC] Sewing a Sheath Shut? - Carolyn Burgess



    <<<sewing the stallion's sheath closed for the class so as not to allow him to drop, thus causing an embarrassing moment for the owner, trainer, who again??>>>


    This may seem like a strange thing, but in the harness racing world, they sew a mare shut and just leave enough room for her to pee through. The theory is that she will be flapping in the breeze when she runs and that would be distracting. I think it would be more distracting to be sewn shut :-o
