Police probe 'falsified' Siena Palio horses

(ANSA) - Siena, May 31 - Police on Tuesday searched a Siena horse-riding stable and the homes and private stables of three jockeys in a probe into the alleged falsification of the records of Italian horses to register them as half-breed Anglo-Arab horses and thus qualify them for the iconic Palio horse race last summer.
    Police said the horses' ID microchips had been switched.
