ELMONT, N.Y. - Andiamo a Firenze, a 2-year-old half-brother to $2.7 million earner Firenze Fire, won his debut by four lengths Friday at Belmont Park.

Breaking alertly from the rail under Irad Ortiz Jr. Andiamo a Firenze got loose on the lead through fractions of 22.49 seconds, 45.90, and was taken in hand by Ortiz coming to the wire as he covered 5 1/2 furlongs in 1:04.27 over a sealed, sloppy track.

Andiamo a Firenze, a New York-bred colt by Speightstown, is owned and bred by Ron Lombardi’s Mr. Amore Stables, who also owned Firenze Fire.

Firenze Fire won his career debut by 3 1/2 lengths in June 2018. He won the Grade 3 Sanford Stakes at Saratoga in his second start.
