A neutered male horse is called a Gelding, and the word for neutered would be gelded.
A castrated horse is usually referred to as a gelding. An incorrectly castrated horse, one that retains some testicular tissue that produces testosterone, is called a ridgeling.
A castrated male horse, regardless of age, is called a gelding.
Gelding because it stands for a male horse who cannot breed anymore either because it has been fixed or it is not of age anymore.

*************

A gelding is a castrated horse. Age has no relevance to the issue.

Uncastrated = stallion, Castrated = Gelding. Stallions have a strong urge to dominate the herd and usually don't get along well with other stallions. They're often harder to handle too.
