Excel And Fly (AUS) Horse
About
Excel And Fly is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia, trained by Austy Coffey of Swan Hill. He is by Flying Artie out of Harpers. So far he has collected five victories. His top accomplishment came on 18 Apr 2025 at Echuca, where he won the $65,000 3yo+ Benchmark 64 Handicap. The horse has consistently been profitable for bettors; wagering on him throughout his career would have produced a 16% return on investment.
