A new home for the Etruscan Coast Palio? IHP responds: “The Regione should remember also who it is that rescues horses, while the Italian Rescue Centre risks closure”

28/12/2021 - “Apparently the Etruscan Coast Palio has found ‘a new home’, in Cecina, where the next race will be held on 18 April, the previous ones having run at San Vincenzo.” Sonny Richichi, president of IHP (Italian Horse Protection) challenges the Regione Toscana and the Comune di Cecina, following their decision to support the Etruscan Coast Palio.
