Retired Race Horse & python shelve question

[suckerM]

Hi
Does anyone know about retired race Horse's, I have been logging and using History data in my API program that I have logged, the number of files is now building up very high, I would like to archive retired Horse, I have the data stored with name & Betfair selection_id which is unique., but I have not be enable to find a proper list of retired horses

also in case anyone knows python very well, I am using the shelve module , which creates 3 file for the dataset (.bak/.dir/.dat), I cant find anywhere to make it only do 1 or 2 files, if I could reduce the number of files this would also help the issue, I am not keen to move away from shelve now , as have lots of code that would need to be changed

I think you should check with the racing authorities or governing bodies in the relevant jurisdictions where the races took place. They may have records or databases that include information on retired racehorses.
