Girolamo earned his first career Grade 1 victory in just his second start of the year, pulling clear through the stretch to take the 71st running of Saturday's $350,000 Vosburgh Invitational at Belmont Park by 2 ½ lengths over Riley Tucker. The 4-year-old A.P. Indy colt, sent off as the 2-1 favorite, broke alertly, and after checking briefly moved up to race between Snapshot and Wall Street Wonder as the latter led the field of nine through an opening quarter-mile in 22.56. Poking his nose in front as the half went in 45.26, Girolamo turned back a late challenge from Riley Tucker to emerge with a clear lead in midstretch and edged clear to hit the wire in 1:09.41.
