Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted January 28 Journalists Share Posted January 28 Ninety years after the birth of the Italian champion racehorse and influential sire Nearco (Ity), Mattia Cadrobbi has been appointed as the new president of the Fondo Italiano dell'Allevamento (Italian Breeding Fund), succeeding the Marquis Annibale Brivio Sforza after his 30 years in the role. Cadrobbi is a former president of the Italian Thoroughbred Breeders' Association (ANAC). Cadrobbi, whose appointment also coincided with the 40th anniversary of the foundation of the FIA, is joined on the Board of Directors by vice president Alessandra Vigliani, who is responsible for Ticino Bloodstock. Guido Berardelli, who already represents the FIA on the Board of Directors of the ANAC, of which the FIA is a founding member, has also been appointed to the Board, along with stallion owner Marina Monassi and stud farm owner Romina Pinna. The management of the technical secretariat has been entrusted to Franco Castelfranchi. It was also reported that the new Board of the FIA has already requested the reintegration of Italy among the member countries of the European Breeders' Fund (EBF), which currently consists of Britain, Ireland, France and Germany. The membership of the FIA was reportedly responsible for over 58% of coverings carried out in Italy in 2024.
