Hi, Pete
You can easily create your own database. Download the week in chess databases as
far back as you want. Sort games by rating and copy those games into a new
database. Presto! You have your desired database. I suggest you sort by >2400.
Some of the games by lower rated players will show you how to play against
unusual moves.
Regards
Tony
