What happens after the (to me) obvious line of axb5 axb5 Rc7?  ie if b6, then
Rb7 blockades the pawn.  I don't think white wants to try to swing the king to
the a-file,as black can play Kc5 and make things difficult...

IE while a5 might be a drawing line, I don't see (yet) a winning line for white
if black just exchanges pawns.
