La Festa Di St. Bartolomeo - Le Corse a Vuoto

The festival of St. Bartolomeo - The Race without a Rider.
In Honor of St. Bartholomeo, the guardian saint of Ronciglione, there is a parade, in Town, where all the horsing clubs present their horses, and in the end, there is a race between the horses of the different "Scuderie" (Stables representing different qurters of the town).
But this is not a normal race, in this race - "Le Corse a Vuoto" (The run without a rider). the horses ride without a rider on their backs.
The pictures are of the "Palio" (The parade), The spectators, and (unfortunately) only one picture of the race itself, for it was too dark when the race took place.
