I was describing the typical running style of his progeny.

As to Girolamao, I disagree completely that he doesn't have acceleration. I've seen it in many of his races - maybe not this year, but it's been there. He's run several big races and he's usually finished up quite well, but this year they screwed up with him. He ran well in the Forego for a horse who'd not run in 10 months. He ran well in the Vosburgh. I think he's obviously off-form at this point, but he's still very talented.

He's run several big races? He's 2 for 7 in stakes company with 4 unplaced efforts.

I don't see how his 2 year old races are an indication that he lacks sufficient class........

He was buried in the Futurity amid a field of future one-hit Grade 2 runners.
