Have a search on Mary Cronk and Jane Evans, bound to find something...
If you can get on their study day (Day at the breech) it's well worth it - they talk about when C/S is truly indicated for breech, as well as teaching the physiology of the vaginal breech.

Its the Hannah trial that you are looking for. That seems to be the research upon whch my trust offer elective LSCS to women with breech babies after 37 weeks. I will see if I can find the full reference

I can recommened Mary Cronk`s study day ` A Day at the Breech" I went last year and found it wonderful and Mary stunning to listen to
