The Very Man
Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12th 3 (12) | 23rd Aug 2024 Good 1m 6f 80y | 9st 12lb | slowly into stride, always behind | 12/1 |
| 9th 2 | 19th Jul 2024 Good 2m 6f 180y | 11st 12lb | Talented dual-purpose performer; cracking fifth in red-hot 2m4f Punchestown handicap on latest hurdles run. | 7/1 |
| 12th 2 (9) | 18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 | 9st 11lb | Very solid sequence last spring/summer on ground ranging from good (unraced on firmer) to heavy, including a dominant display from the back over 2m at this track; 7lb higher mark today demands a career-best Flat performance but he was bang there in blanket finish to a good handicap hurdle last month and it's not hard to think that this trip will suit. | 25/1 |
| 5th 3 (6) | 31st May 2024 Good 2m 0f 0y | 9st 6lb | Dual-purpose type won 2m Ascot handicap off 92 last summer; good run over hurdles in competitive Punchestown festival handicap and that should have brought him on. | 8/1 |
| 5th 10 | 4th May 2024 Yielding 2m 4f 118y | 11st 2lb | No hurdle wins since January 2022 but won on the Flat at Ascot last year; didn't show much back over timber at the Dublin Racing Festival last time and others are more convincing. | 20/1 |
