Al Ain Race 8 - Purebred Arabian Maiden
AF TAADO (10) is a filly by Af Al Buraq out of Rb Wicked Rich, who is at the races for the first time today. Has had the benefit of five trials. Looks set for a bright start to her career. AA BURNING DAYLIGHT (2) is a well-bred five-year-old mare on debut. By Burning Sand from Rich Craft, who has produced a winner at stakes level. Has only trialled once and was out of the placings at Jebel Ali. Promising type who is ready to run a bold race. FARAH BAYNOUNAH (11) ran below expectations last time at Abu Dhabi, finishing well back after starting at $2.60. Stick with her and follow your money. THILAL (15) was unplaced on debut, then last start finished third over 1400m at Jebel Ali. Each way claims again.
