Hope I'm not boring yas all with this stuff, .

Absolutly not, I love it.


You know, I'm also a horse racing enthusiast, and while in most "serious" countries a racehorse can have only one single name, which on top of that has to follow certain rules, this is not so in Paraguay, where I originally come from. In my spare time, I do research for the paraguayan Stud Book, and because in past times, many horses entered Paraguay illegally from Argentina or Brasil, their new paraguayan owners obviously changed their names for a fake one...and oh boy, I spent days searching in newspapers, writing e-mails to farms and foreign stud books, even comparing old pictures or videos to identify certain horses...you have to really love this stuff to do it.


So keep going, these oldtimers need their records completed.
