Thank you so much Atsgran and Rollo. I have wasted far too much time on this; may I ask where I might have found the answer?

[Rollo]

I found it here:

http://www.bartleby.com/81/8490.html

via a google search using

"orlando furioso gradasso horse"

[Leo-Bloom]

I googled 'Grassado's horse' and came up with Lou Alfano's homepage.
There, there was mention of Alfana, Gradassos mare.
I'm sure there must be a more direct way to find such arcane info.

[atsgran]

Did the same - Googled it

Thank you once again, Rollo, Leo-Bloom and atsgran. I tried Googling but my word order or something else only delivered detailed info on Orlando Furioso stanza by stanza. I shall try harder next time.
