Breeders of unique coloured TB's and Sport Horses!

Hey guys, need your expert opinion.
A breeder has been boarding a 3 yr old stallion at her farm. The horse's owner didn't have proper facilities for the horse before he got there (he was being kept in a horse trailer 80% of the time!!). So even starting out, this horse has been a little hard to work with. She was attempting to breed him for the first time (pasture bred) and the stallion attacked her. He charged her, rolled on her and bit her shoulder.
M question is, was he viewing her as a threat to the mare? Was the attack "stallion" motivated? And do you think that there is a chance this horse could be rehabilitated if gelded, turned out w/other horses (he has been somewhat isolated) and handled on a regular basis?
Who the heck keeps ANY horse in a horse trailer 80% of the time, let alone a growing, sexually mature colt/stallion! And then expects it to come out sane in the mind and sound in the body without some horrifically major issues going on??? 
You hear stuff like this and you want to string someone up by the you-know-whats ... 
Poor darned horse and it isnt even remotely his fault but of course he is going to be the one that pays the ultimate price for his owner's stupidity and gross negligence ...
