[RC] 100 mile horses pre 1996 - Michael MaulI've gotten enough email in the past so I know people are interested in seeing the horses prior to 1996.I've always avoided doing this because of the errors we know are in the archive db. There's all sorts of "junk" in fields so that we've put in "hacks" so it doesn't appear in what you see online. It's a completely separate db from the office. But it's there and trying to run queries on that is a nightmare plus undoubtly we'd miss things. I already spend time every week explaining why someone's pre-1996 online record isn't exactly the same as their AERC record. Here's a suggestion for the group. Russ and I have made the 100s a separate category now in the horse/rider statistics. While it's not completely accurate - it gives a pretty good picture. It goes back to 1985. If a knowledgeable person(s) who knows the horses/riders of the period was to use the online horse/rider history as a starting point - and old Endurance News issues as a check - and was willing to compile the stats on the high number 100 mile horses - I will combine it with the post 95 ones and put up a recognition page on the AERC site. This is all manual work - you have to know who to look up. You need access to old EN or someone who has them. Any volunteers? If I get more than one volunteer - one of them needs to coordinate the rest of the group's work.
