 F.E.I.
Dressage World Cup day two in San Patrignano: Cesare
Croce, F.IS.E. President, has drawn attention on the
great work made in these last 4 years in order to relaunch
equestrian sports in Italy and the good competitive
results attained by Italian riders in top international
competitions: "Nowadays Italy is unanimous held in esteem
for its good ability in the organization of equestrian
events". He declared "Our international shows, Piazza
di Siena, Pavarotti International, Vincenzo Muccioli
Challenge, La Bagnaia, mentioning only some of them,
can offer jumping shows that can be compared to top
events such as Aquisgrana or Calgary. I hope that the
friendship and the reciprocal esteem existing between
the federation and the community, make it possible to
reach great achievements for dressage, as well as for
American riding and, most of all, to succeed in organizing
the European Championships here in San Patrignano".
