In 1503, during a private horse race held by the Borgia, Fiora Cavazza was sent to Donato to either bribe or threaten him into allowing Cesare to win.[1]
She presented Donato with a fine set of armor, which he eagerly tried on. However, as she relayed Cesare's threat, Donato only remarked that he was not surprised, and that "the winner will win the race. There are no other factors."[1]
Donato rode well and fairly in the competition, despite the interference of one of Cesare's officers, Teodor Viscardi, who charged him in the middle of the race and attempted to attack him with a blade. Donato only dodged the thrust and spurred his horse forward to win, claiming his victory before a silent audience.[1]
Acting as she was ordered, Fiora then sent a group of mercenaries to beat Donato violently, much to the crowd's amusement, though she lamented that Donato had been the race's true winner.[1]

- Ezio: "Who did this?"
- Rocco: "Donato Mancini. I rode against his horse in the races and made the mistake of winning."
- —Ezio talking to the merchant.[src]
Later that same year, when a merchant named Rocco defeated Donato in a race, the arrogant captain responded angrily by destroying the merchant's stand and threatening his life.[2]
Ezio Auditore da Firenze came across the merchant shortly after this, and decided to aid him. Seeking out Donato in the ruins of the Circo Massimo, Ezio discovered him practicing his horsemanship along with his other soldiers.[2]
The Assassin then proceeded to chase down Donato, killing only him, and sparing the lives of his guards.[2]
