About
Very Good is a 4yo bay mare from Australia, trained by John Kilroy in Tolga. She is by Shalaa out of Du Well and has recorded three victories to date. Her biggest triumph came on 23 May 2026 at Mareeba, where she won the $10,000 Bm50 Hcp. Punters have found her to be a reliable money‑maker; a lifetime ROI of 17% would result from backing her throughout her career.
