Note: 6 palios that have been ridden without riders or whose rider is unknown

Some facts and statistics about the fantini:

The fantino who won for the largest number of different contrade is Pavolino, who divided his 14 wins into 12 contrade.

Caino won for 10 different contrade, while Bachicche, Dorino, and Paolaccino won for 9 contrade.

If we look a bit more recently, we see that Aceto won for 8 different contrade, Trecciolino is currently on 7, Il Pesse and Cianchino finished winning for 6 different contrade.

Some fantini won more than 5 palii but never for the same district: Pettinajo and Nappa were 6x successful for the same amount of contrade; Girocche, Rancani and Tristezza count 5 wins for 5 different neighborhoods.

If we look further at who was the multiple winner for the same neighborhood, we see Aceto and Gobbo Saragiolo at the top of this list with 5 wins: the first for Oca, the other for Torre.

With 4 wins at the same contrada we see Biggeri at Torre, Paolaccino at Chiocciola and Picino at Oca and Valdimontone.

Piaccina also stands out for his 3 victories in 3 consecutive years for Civetta: in 1811, 1812 and 1813.

Both Ferrino and Fiammifero won twice in their careers; Ferrino for Istrice and Fiammifero for Bruco.

Some rarities:

On August 16, 1982, Canapino (fantino) rode for Civetta on Canapino (cavallo).

On August 16, 1988, Leocorno paired Tredici (fantino) with Euro (cavallo)

On August 16, 2000, Veleno (fantino) sat on Velenosa (cavallo) for Selva.

Leocorno also ran 3 different fantini with the same nickname: Morino

Aceto rode no less than 19 times for Oca, an absolute record.
