It can vary greatly. Some surgery can be done at your local vet's clinic. But more complicated problems must go to a larger hospital. So it can be anywhere from a few hundred to thousands of dollars. Also discuss with your vet about the dangers of horses under general anesthetics. And wherever you take your horse you will need to talk about finances with them.

Yes, horses can have OCD. But it is not the human condition you're thinking of. OCD in horses refers to Osteochondrosis but not Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. Osteochondrosis is a disease that affects a horses joints and is similar to a human experiencing "growing pains." Symptoms of osteochondrois include stiffness and lameness in the leg. See the related link below for more information on treatment.
The likelihood of a horse with OCD becoming a performance horse will greatly depend on what form of OCD they have and what level of performance you wish to compete at. Most horses show symptoms when they enter training and will either not be able to preform, or can be a candidate for surgery or some other type of treatment. Once this happens the horses performance level will likely decrease to the lowest levels of the chosen sport. It would be best to consult with a equine veterinarian for exact answers as each horse is different.
