My gut feeling is that there's something wrong with this horse, health wise. However, he may just be a sod.
Either way, I wouldn't pass him on. How would you feel if you found out he'd really injured someone?
I'd either bute trial then go back to the vets for further investigations, or if I decided I'd already invested enough in this horse is PTS.
However, this may sound odd but if I PTS then I'd send him to the kennels. That way, he'd be 'useful' at the last, and for my conscience it would be no different to the cattle or lambs going off. If that makes sense!
