FormscanBy Donal Murphy - No worse than third in four visits to Bellewstown, another bold bid can be expected from WHAT ADAAY. Successful here in July, the Pat Martin-trained five-year-old was third when attempting to follow-up on her most recent start. The Bog Bank won this race 12-months ago and is another with a fine record at the Co Meath venue. Fourth or better on her last seven visits to the Hill Of Crockafotha, she will again be ridden by regular pilot James Ryan, with the young apprentice claiming a valuable 5lb. With Frankie Dettori aboard, Trueba famously won at this meeting in 2021 and it'll come as little surprise if he manages to strike again. The admirable gelding provided Wesley Joyce win this first win since returning from injury at Cork last month, and the Co Limerick pilot is reunited with the seven-year-old now. Fastman, Manhattan Dandy and Navorrosse are others for the shortlist.
