Adaay to Stand 2022 Breeding Season in Italy

Whitbury Manor Stud resident and 2021 group 2-winning sire Adaay (IRE) is on the move and will relocate to Allevamento di Besnate di Pierantonio near Milan for the 2022 season. The son of Kodiac (GB) saw his breakthrough group and listed winners this term courtesy of Darley Prix de Cabourg (G3) scorer Have A Good Day (IRE) and Prix Zeddaan winner Honey Sweet (IRE), while he has also sired five further black-type performers including Premio Primi Passi (G3) third Doctor Strange and E.B.F. Marygate Stakes runner-up Furlong Factor. Adday was acquired by Hamdan Al Maktoum for 240,000 guineas (US$423,260) at the Tattersalls Craven Breeze-Up Sale. He went on to capture five of 17 career starts, with his biggest successes coming in the 888Sport Sandy Lane Stakes (G2) and Betfred Hungerford Stakes (G2). The 9-year-old, who retired to Whitsbury Manor Stud for the 2017 breeding season at a fee of £7,000, sired an excellent 22 individual juvenile winners from his first crop. His leading progeny to date is Have A Good Day, who supplemented her Deauville success with a narrow second to subsequent Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf (G1T) runner-up Malavath (IRE) in the Criterium de Maisons-Laffitte (G2). Adaay is the sixth foal out of the Royal Applause mare Lady Lucia and is a half brother to five winners. Adaay will stand alongside Pounced at a fee of €4,500.
