Gonna Fly

What makes Gonna Fly worth watching is what his trainer Ralph Beckett has revealed about his plans. After stepping him up in trip earlier this year, Beckett noted that the horse's pedigree was tricky to read and suggested further progression might be on the cards. The comment that he doesn't lack speed hints at a runner with natural ability but perhaps one who still needs to prove himself over longer distances. That Windsor win came in June, and with his recent form showing two wins in the last six, there is momentum building. Beckett's yard at Kimpton has sent out 107 winners this season, a sign of a stable firing on all cylinders. At three years old, with active racing form and clear upward trajectory, Gonna Fly looks like a horse with interesting days ahead.
