About

Mr Verse is a 4yo chestnut gelding trained by T & C McEvoy. He is by Lope De Vega out of Puppy Love. To date he has won 4 races. On 5 July 2025 at Sunshine Coast, he secured his biggest triumph, the $75,000 Benchmark 70 Handicap. The horse has been a money‑maker for punters; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 191% return on investment.
