A maiden for purebred Arabians may not look the most appetizing betting contest on Pau’s 12-race gala card today, but there is quite simply a huge gulf in class between favourite Wala’a and today’s rivals today.

 

Dropping down from stakes company for the first time, the four-year-old filly finished last season with a slightly unlucky 6th place in the Saint-Cloud Group One. Her ability to break well and travel will be an asset in this polytrack contest. Her trainer excels with Arabians and sent out a 1-2-3-4 with four runners last month.

 

Wala’a rates as a confident bet to win from stall 7.
