The Shaikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan Global Arabian Horse Flat Racing Festival made its debut in Norway with a Wathba Stud Farm Cup race in Ovrevoll earlier this month. Labwah, trained by Pia Hoiom and ridden by Pers-Anders Graberg won the 1800-metre race in which seven Arabian horses took part.
Labwah finished a quarter-of-a-length ahead of Daraahem under Charlotte Goss with W Catchcash under Anna Pilroth in third place over four lengths behind.
Labwah is owned by Iraqi Dr Mohammed Al Nujaifi and it was the sixth win in 22 starts. The six-year-old Labwah, bred in Iraq, has taken part in the Shaikh Mansour Festival races in Toulouse (France) in 2013 and in the Shaikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan Cup in Ostend (Belgium) and Wathba Stud Farm Cup in Denmark last year.
Before her win in Norway had taken part in the Wathba Stud Farm Cup (Group 3) in Jagerspro, Sweden (4th to Gazel T) and had finished third to Mirabella del Sol in the Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak Ladies World Championship race in Gardat, Stockholm in Sweden on June 6.
