I think he will be retired to stud while he is winning. So soundness may not be a problem.

I'm fascinated because he moves like a horse shouldn't move! Like he's in permanent 'circus trick' mode. This is where and why I don't like it. It's humans manipulating by breeding and training an animal to human spec whether it is good for the horse or not. For me breeding for very extreme and un natural gaits or characteristics and training methods that have implications for the health of horses is going too far for me personally. That's another subject I know. I'm sure he will go to stud young but he still may have lameness or other issues and be in some degree of pain or discomfort for the rest of his life. Of course again he may well be absolutely fine and I really, really hope so.
