Gaudenzia was named for this 

Gaudenzia is a story of a legendary horse: she was trained for the Palio horserace, held annually in Siena, Italy. 

In a crucial moment, she lost her jockey to a fall, but Gaudenzia regained her footing and carried on, ultimately winning the race.  

Her story represents hard work, hope, and the courage to keep going against all odds.  
That’s why we chose Gaudenzia as our namesake. No matter what comes your way, never give up and try to realize your full potential.
