    Was he kidnaped to be used as a building block for future irish champion horses and trainers..How easy was it to change an horses identity in the 80s..

    Even if Shergar had fractured his leg, they should have let him out and drove off. He would have been found. I don't believe that story, though. They wanted to cover their tracks. Disgrace!

    The groom should have taken another horse in the van. Kidnappers wouldn't have noticed.

    Shergar was not killed and was running point to point races in Ireland under the identity of another horse in 1987 and was stabled just outside of Swords in North County Dublin.The whole story is bs.
