Nicely away from gate six with Mike Smith back at the controls, the scopey bay colt sat just off the flank of longshot pacesetter Belmont Bill (Oxbow), claimed that one at will at the quarter pole and was ridden out to graduate by three lengths Saturday at Del Mar. A $250,000 Keeneland September purchase last fall, Vittorio was knocked to Ben McElroy, agent for Kaleem Shah, for $750,000 at this year’s OBS June sale after breezing an eighth of a mile in :9 4/5. O-Kaleem Shah Inc; B-Stonestreet Thoroughbred Holdings LLC (KY); T-Simon Callaghan.
