I took on a horse a few months ago with some serious issues and have been continuosly been trying to find out more about his history to try and piece together when and how it all went wrong for him. He's slowly but sure turning into a lovely horse and will see out the rest of his days with me.
His full name is Topflight EL Torreodore and was bred by Topflight stud in Derbyshire. I put the stud prefix in the National equine database and as well as his name being and parentage being listed there were also many others several listing him as the sire (I was in shock when i saw this as person i got him off had no idea he'd ever been used as a stallion) one of his progeny is Toplfight El flamenco - BSJA but can't get a contact number for owner.
Anyway i'm a bit of a geek with my gee gee's and like to put together portfolio's of info/pics/results/press cuttings etc and i would love to be able to contact the breeder to find out excatly what he was like when he was little and i'm also trying to hunt down owners of his progeny.
So can anyone help me out on this one cos i seem to be hitting dead ends all the time

We found the best place for owner info or any info was face book, we traced a horse who had been sold on 3 times.....I am not on facebook but the lady looking for the horse was and after a bit of google searching for old show results we found a name, that led to another name and tracked the horse down.
I'm in derbyshire, not heard of topflight but possibly not circles I'd move in, which part of derbyshire?
