I was just reading something about this today in a mag.

Something along the lines of breeders creating 'Rig's' on purpose and can get fined or jailed for it.

I guess if you think about the biology of it, if a Horse is marked as G then it should have no nuts and therefore lower hormone levels yes?

And if a breeder can turn a horse into a G but still have one nut then it will have higher hormone levels and should run faster yes?

The article was on 'Racing and Sports if you wanted to look it up.

Food for thought none the less.

Now. Back to questions as I am still keen to buy this database.

Can I.... choose all default values for the query and dump the whole or close to whole database straight into excel and then create my own set of queries?
I know this sounds odd but if I can do this then I can not only use an already created database but I can extend it further into the area that I play with which would be perfect.

The only thing really stopping me from doing it all myself is I just don't have access or the contacts to get the raw data.

and if the database can do most generic system type queries then cool, but if I can dump everything and goto excel or access to do or re-do everything myself then I would have a big smile on my face !
