Doha: Mubarak Ali M. A. Al-Nuaimi-owned Intisar De Monlau and Wathnan Racing's Moneer secured dominant victories at La Teste, Southwestern France, yesterday.

Intisar De Monlau (Al Mamun Monlau), a four-year-old filly, secured her second Gr.2 (PA) victory in dominant fashion, winning the Prix Nefta - Wathba Stud Farm over 2000m. The race featured a field of six runners.

Trained by Mme Jean-François Bernard, Intisar De Monlau showed great promise last season and it was clear from the outset that she had the potential to secure a win in this race.

The race was led by Shumma (Munjiz), with Intisar De Monlau travelling in fourth. Once in the final straight, she quickly asserted his dominance, proving far too strong for the rest of the field. Ridden by Jean-Bernard Eyquem, Intisar De Monlau surged to the front and won comfortably by two and a half lengths. Shumma held on for second, while Alhaan (AF Albahar) finished third.
