BIGBADANDBEAUTIFUL carries extra for her latest victory in a Listed race at Gowran where she won with something to spare so will take plenty of beating. The four-year-old The Getaway Star is also penalised for her two victories but has looked a very smart prospect in both. Global Equity was very impressive when scoring by nine lengths at Galway and further progress looks guaranteed while Valentina Lady beat a huge field in very good style at Naas when well supported so is greatly respected in an interesting bumper.
