Two successful harness-racing
thoroughbreds, one a scion of the legendary Varenne, were stolen
from a farm near Pisa Monday night and the police think theft
for ransom could be the motive.
The horses are a colt, Vampire Dany, who is Varenne's
descendant, and a filly, Unicka.
Unicka in 2016 won two top harness races including the Derby
and the Orsi Mangelli while Vampire Dany, a three-year-old, came
first in the Gran Criterium.
