Bebeautiful will be heading to AustraliaClosely related to the globe trotting international champion Gordon Lord Byron, BEBEAUTIFUl is building an impressive CV of 5 starts for two second placing as a 2yo and three wins in a row this year in France.

The rich black imposing filly caught the eye of bloodstock agent Louis Le Metayer from Astute Bloodstock who build a partnership last week to secure the filly only 48hours before her Listed win.

“Prominent owner Brae Sokolski came to France last summer and gave me an order for a good filly so I am thrilled that BEBEAUTIFUL could deliver this result for us.”
