i think he's got a lot to process emotionally.  it's been a huge change
for him.  when he's standing for hours staring, i'll bet he's thinking,
in his quiet and fearful way, about how his life now might be different
from his old one.  we ph33r change, but still sometimes change is good.

have you done any massage with him?  i've had some luck with that on
ex-racehorses, though i've never tried it with a horse with a history
like gallant boy's.
