Adaay In Asia Targeting a Grade 3 Stakes

Adaay in Asia had her first breeze at Santa Anita Park this morning, covering four furlongs in :48.80 under jockey Kyle Frey. The daughter of Adaay was on the muscle from the get-go and hooked up with some company from other barns around the turn. She traveled well through the stretch while never being asked for anything. “She’s an A+ workhorse,” said trainer Phil D’Amato. “If I wanted her to breeze a bullet every week she could.” We plan to target the G3 Las Cienegas Stakes on January 14th which will be contested down the hillside turf course at Santa Anita. This was a major reason why the filly shipped west and we are excited to see how she handles it. We still have a month to go for that race so trainer Phil D’Amato will keep her on a weekly work schedule while not needing to do anything too serious from a work standpoint. She’s a filly that gets plenty out of her daily gallops. Also note, it is the time of year when rain will start to come in Arcadia and our first expected storm is projected next week which could affect her work schedule in the short term.
